How it works: The generator creates a `Recipe` entity from the core fields first, then layers in ingredients, step-by-step instructions, and nutrition only where you actually provide them. Time values stay flexible so you can use ISO durations when they help without forcing extra validation into the flow.

Pro Tips
1

Match the ingredient list and instructions to the visible recipe page exactly.

2

The tool supports lightweight calorie data, but it is not a full nutrition-label generator.

3

Time values are entered manually, so double-check prep, cook, and total time consistency before publishing.

4

Ingredient and instruction editors are flexible, which makes the tool useful for simple and more detailed recipes alike.

5

External validation is still helpful after implementation if you want to test structured-data eligibility more deeply.
