Description
May I suggest that some kind of indicator show that markdown is required? With no indication, it just looks like the result is a display bug.
[edit] for example, github shows "Use Markdown to format your comment" until you start entering text here.

Research direction
Start by locating the empty text boxes in the cookbook's frontend and inspect how their current empty state is rendered. Add a clear placeholder indicating that Markdown is required, matching the requested behavior; done means empty boxes show the guidance and it disappears when text entry begins.
