Fennel
A recipe theme where the ingredients stay on screen while you scroll through the method.
== Description ==
Cooking from a phone means scrolling between the ingredients and the step that uses them, forty times. Fennel keeps ingredients visible beside the method on wide screens and collapsible-but-pinned on narrow ones.
Quantities are structured, so the scale control genuinely recalculates — including fractions, and including the ones that do not divide evenly, which it renders as the nearest sensible measure rather than 0.667 of an egg.
Recipe structured data is generated from the same fields as the display. There is no separate SEO panel asking you to type the ingredients again.
== Screenshots ==
Numbered the way they ship in /assets/. Click any one to see it full width.
== Installation ==
- Install and activate the theme.
- Create a recipe and fill in ingredients and method as structured fields.
- Everything else — timings, yield, scaling, markup — follows.
The story above the recipe is optional and collapsed by default. Readers have opinions about this.
== Frequently asked questions ==
Metric and imperial?
Both, converted from whichever you entered, with a per-reader toggle that persists.
Print?
A print layout that fits most recipes on one page, with the ingredients and method side by side.
Does the story have to be there?
No. It is a separate field and can be empty.
