Let’s demo some features!

As you’ve just seen, you can use level-2 headings to subdivide a recipe into different parts – that’s handy if, say, a recipe describes how to make a thing and a sauce for that thing.

Due to limitations described here, you can’t have a heading right at the start of a recipe. For the same reason, don’t precede a heading with a horizontal rule, but do add one after it (basically, just do it the way it’s done here).

• 500 ml water

As shown in the previous “step”, three nested blockquotes can help you draw attention to (part of) an instruction. If there was a need to, say, bring half a liter of water to a rolling boil, it might be appropriate to warn the reader:

Don’t burn the water!

Or something slightly more sensible like that.

Of course, the standard Markdown styling features are also at your disposal – bold, italic, and strike-through, just to name a few. Links and images can be embedded in the usual way.

Inline HTML, while inelegant (especially this tag), works too!
