Im making my first mod and I learned how to make crafting recipes. When i tried to test it out the game launched and I could play but when I tried the crafting recipe nothing happened . Any help would be great

 

code:

 

package com.ethan.ethansmod;

import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;

import net.minecraft.init.Items;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;

 

@Mod(modid = Ethansmod.MODID, version = Ethansmod.VERSION)

 

public class Ethansmod {

public static final String MODID = "my mod";

    public static final String VERSION = "1.0";

   

    public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event)

    {

    GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(Items.baked_potato),

    "aaa",

    "aaa",

    "aaa",

    'a', Blocks.bookshelf

    );

    }

 

}
