Vittles provides several models in the Core app for working with the basic elements of creating recipes. These include:
- Foods
- Edible stuff that you cook with
- Categories
- Used for grouping foods
- Units
- Ways of measuring food by volume, weight, or discrete quantities, such as cups, liters, ounces or grams
- Equivalences
- Conversions between units
- Preparations
- Ways of preparing food such as chopping, slicing, or mashing
The initial database load populates these tables with some basic starter data, but you may find that you need to add more as you create new recipes.
