If you are a good cook, then it can be a good idea to compile all your best recipes in the format of a digital cookbook.
What is a digital cookbook?
It’s an ebook that you can sell online as a digital download format. If you are a food blogger or just a home cook, you can include your favorite recipes here. If you want you can choose a specific cuisine as well. You can also compile recipes to create a ‘healthy food cookbook’, ‘low-carb cookbook’, or ‘diabetic cookbook’. Most people now search online for recipes. They would love to get several recipes together in a book form.
How to create a digital cookbook
You first need to organize your thoughts regarding the recipes you want to add to this cookbook. You should write down the list of ingredients and detailed procedure. It’s a good idea to prepare the meal when you write. That way you can give useful tips to the readers and mention the time required to marinate and cook. Many people are busy, so knowing the cooking time can help them decide which meals to cook for the day.
Then you have to organize your thoughts. This step is very easy in the case of an ebook as you can use a recipe template. You only need to put the ingredients and cooking methods in the designated slots of the template. You may include additional information in your recipe like calorie intake. You can create the ebook cover using Canvas or other tools. After you have completed your ebook you can distribute it through various channels like social media, email, blogs, and others. You can also sell it on Amazon or other book sites.
The cost of making an ebook is lower than the hard-cover book. Another benefit is that you can modify your recipes without incurring extra costs like you would have in the case of hard copies. You can also include video clips and links to your digital cookbook.
