Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about our recipes, nutrition guides, privacy and how to reach us. Can't find what you need? Just ask.
Using the recipes
Are your recipes tested?
Yes. Every recipe on Recipes Space is cooked and refined in a home kitchen using standard equipment before it is published. We note timings, temperatures and visual cues so you can get the same results.
Can I change the number of servings?
Yes. On each recipe page, use the + and − buttons next to 'Servings' in the ingredients panel. Quantities update automatically. Cooking times may need small adjustments for much larger or smaller batches.
Do you use metric or US measurements?
Most recipes list grams and milliliters for accuracy alongside familiar spoon and cup measures. A kitchen scale gives the most consistent results, especially for baking.
Can I print a recipe?
Absolutely. Click the 'Print' button at the top of any recipe. We hide menus and other page elements so the printout focuses on ingredients and method.
How do I substitute an ingredient?
Many recipes include substitution ideas in the 'Tips for success' box. If you need help with a specific swap, send us a message through the contact page.
Nutrition & health
Is the information in your food guides medical advice?
No. Our food benefit guides are for general educational purposes only. They are not a substitute for advice from a doctor, registered dietitian or other qualified professional, who can consider your individual health needs.
Where does your nutrition information come from?
We reference reputable public sources such as USDA FoodData Central, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration. Values shown are approximate.
Do your recipes include calorie counts?
We don't currently publish calorie counts for each recipe, because results vary with brands and portion sizes. You can calculate figures for your exact ingredients using a nutrition calculator or USDA FoodData Central.
Do you cater for allergies or dietary needs?
We label vegetarian and vegan-friendly recipes and often suggest swaps. However, we can't guarantee that any recipe is free from allergens, so always check ingredient labels carefully.
