Love cooking? Create your own recipe book!

Do you particularly love to cook? Whenever you have some free time, in the evenings or on your weekends, do you enjoy rushing to your stove? Cooking is a wonderful passion, which especially allows you to please those around you. Who doesn't like to savor a good dish or pastries made with care and love? One thing is for sure, you will delight your taste buds, but also those of your loved ones!

If you tend to use many recipes and vary the pleasures, it is always preferable to have a simple and fast way to find them. Sources of information tend to multiply. Recipes gleaned on the net, cookbooks given by a friend, handwritten notes from your grandmother... Why not put everything together in one unique and personalized recipe book?

Why create your own recipe book?

You surely know this, but a recipe book is a great way to always have access to your favorite recipes when you go to your stove. Moreover, there are many reasons that can encourage you to create your own.

To gather all the recipes found everywhere

It is not uncommon to find recipes everywhere, especially if you cook regularly. The internet is an excellent source when it comes to finding a recipe easily and quickly, especially since it is possible to read reviews to find the highest-rated ones! However, consulting a recipe on a phone is not very practical when you are in the middle of preparing it.
Having a physical object that can keep you company in the kitchen, and that is easy to have at hand is still preferable. Especially if all your recipes do not come from the internet! A handwritten note that you or one of your relatives filled out several weeks ago will inevitably end up getting damaged, especially if you leave it near oil or chocolate.
That's why opting for a personalized recipe book, which can gather recipes from the net as well as those from your relatives, is an excellent solution. It is also not uncommon that you add your personal touch to each dish or dessert you make. By creating your recipe book, you can therefore modify the recipe as you like by adding your personal touch to the ingredients or the steps.

To preserve family recipes

We all have these recipes in our families that are considered family classics. Knowledge passed down from generation to generation or a parents' recipe that stirs up your nostalgia, these recipes are more than precious to you. That's why you must not lose them! Creating a book of family recipes is therefore an excellent way to immortalize these recipes and keep them safe. You could have several copies printed, to distribute to your siblings, for example.
If you visit Flexilivre's website, you should know that you can access pre-designed templates to more easily create your recipe book. There is notably a template to list all your mom's recipes, if she loved to make you delicious meals whose recipes you want to keep. Of course, more classic templates are also available if you wish to make a more traditional album.

How to create an aesthetic recipe book?

You now have an idea in mind of the recipes you want to preserve? All you have left to do is create your book, directly online. Many sites allow you to create your personalized album, including Flexilivre, which we discussed earlier. This site offers many interesting models, from the 3D photo album to the smart album, including the recipe book.
What might be interesting for you through this website is the choice of format and print quality for your book. You can opt for the following formats:

• square format, which is quite original.
• landscape format, classic for a photo album, but less so for a book.
• portrait format, ideal for a recipe book.

Aside from the offered templates, you have a real margin for customization, as is the case on most customizable photo album sites. You can, for instance, add stickers, choose the color of the pages, as well as the layout of text and photos.
Thanks to the creation of a personalized and decorated recipe book by your own hands, you will keep the recipes of your choice for many years and will therefore be able to pass them on to your children or just to your friends in general. All of this within an aesthetic and pleasant to flip through album, which you can print indefinitely. You are free to choose the number of copies you make, and nothing prevents you from printing new ones in a few years by adding a few pages.
