add field for ingredient? about gr8975 HOT 3 OPEN

I agree, and in this case the "recipe" is not really a recipe, but a user guide.

I agree completely. One f. 39r, there is an extensive discussion of what one can do with "dyers' woad". The text refers to using an iron plow to cultivate this agricultural product, but there is no space to record such detail in our metadata template. I could come up with other examples, too.

I have encountered similar issues. For example, I have an instance where a hot iron is being used to dry a dead crayfish, though hot iron is a tool in the activity being described, for now I have included it as part of the "ingredients" to this process. A question I could not answer was, why make a distinction between ingredient and tool? How would this distinction help us in building a certain feature for the digital edition?
