“Ingredient(s)” refers to
any of the substances (or foods) that are combined to make a particular dish.
For example, the ingredients needed to prepare vegetable stew include; oil,
pepper, carrots, green pepper, onions, tomatoes, etc.
A “recipe” is “a set of
instructions telling you how to prepare and cook a particular food...” For
example, a recipe for preparing vegetable stew is, Heat oil over medium heat;
add sliced onions, pepper, tomatoes, and let it simmer for some time before you
add your sliced carrots and green pepper.
In a nutshell, a recipe
tells you how to use the ingredients required for cooking a particular
food.
