I did note the ' saved Rx box '

is there any way the Box can be saved to the desk top, and function as individual files later w/o a browser ?

 

Before I had a subscription to NYT Cooking, I used to try to "game the system" and capture recipes which interested me. Now, of course, I can see the entire recipe.

 

I have a format in Evernote for all recipes I want to make or reference, which includes some eGullet chats. I want to be able to print the recipe I'm interested in, so I can prop it up in the kitchen. (I'm very annoyed at the "upgrade" of Evernote [ownership to Bent Spoons] which add[ed] huge text size and created many headings [H1, H2, H3]. I now strip all that out when I make my Evernote copy. It takes a few minutes but then the recipe can easily be read from a printed page}.

 

There's no way to do that without a software repository, @rotuts. Some people use Microsoft Word.

 

One thing you could do from the original recipe is to print to pdf (or save as pdf) which would give you a file which you can store on your computer and access without opening a browser. When you save the recipe give it a useful name, e.g. RedBoat40ByRotuts.pdf . You could organize your recipes by putting them in named folders, e.g. Beef, in a structured fashion.

 

In Evernote all of my food-related notes are in a Notebook named Food.

 

Edited to add:

I used to work (hard) to get all the recipe ingredients on the first page, and usually, the entire recipe on two pages. Evernote's mash-up of printing "fixed" all that. 😒
