Instructions for importing .CSV file - If you'd like to bulk import your own curated recipes, you'll need to use our .CSV excel sheet and add all of your recipe information in this format. Find this file attached with an example in row 2.
Once you have finished adding the recipe information contact our team with your file and CookBook account details and we will log your import to be completed by one of our team.
