To share a recipe:

To gift a recipe:

1. Select the Gift (present) icon in the top right corner of the mobile apps or in the recipe actions panel in your web browser.

Each time you select the Give button the number of gift recipes will automatically decrease by one article—regardless of whether or not you ultimately share the article.

Our nutritional analysis provides a rough estimate only. If you must know the precise nutritional analysis of a recipe, please consult a registered dietitian or nutritionist.

To view the nutrition facts on a recipe, select Nutritional Information beneath the ingredients on a recipe. This is not yet available on all recipes.

At this time, New York Times Cooking does not support metric conversion on recipes. We know this is a popular request and something we'd like to implement in the future!

New York Times Cooking has partnered with Instacart to offer the ability to shop a recipe’s ingredients and get them delivered same-day via Instacart.

For more information on this feature, please review Shop Ingredients on Instacart.
