The list generated will contain all the Recipes which contain the item within the Replace Ingredient field. The information under each column details the setup of the Ingredient for each Recipe that it is in. When the Ingredient is replaced, it will use the same details as listed.
- If any changes need to be made to the Quantity, Unit etc, edit these within the Recipe Center
- Use the Select tick boxes to choose all Recipes to be updated, then select Replace
Please Note: Not all Recipes within the list will be able to be used in the Ingredient Replacement functionality. Any Recipes which cannot be used will display as greyed-out. For more information on why a Recipe cannot be used, hover the mouse cursor over it.
When using this function, allergens for the new Ingredient will automatically update with the Recipe. It will not remove any allergens from the Ingredient which has been replaced.
- To remove allergens from a Recipe after this process, edit within the Recipe Center
