using the plus sign (+) at the left of the recipe.
Creating an Ingredient
1. Click the Ingredient icon and select New.
2. Enter a name and gram weight for your Ingredient.
Note: if you enter an Ingredient name that is the same
as an existing ESHA food item, the program will not let
you save it.
Another Note: ESHA code, creation date and modified
date are automatically filled in by the program. The
ESHA code only applies to foods already in the program’s
database.
3. Select Nutrients from the left.
Entering Nutrient Values
• You can enter as much or as little nutrient information as
you wish. It is certainly more helpful to enter as much as
possible, but it is not necessary.
Values are entered in one of two ways – either by typing
in the numeric value or the %RDI value (from, for
instance, a nutrition facts panel).
• Click OK.
