You can name the input field with cake's convintions using a dummy DB field
in order to have this input accessable in {$this->data}, once you have
completed execution your process you can simply unset this field {unset(
$this->data['Recipe']['dummy_field']}, or otherwise you can also use the
{$this->params} array to access this field from the POSTed form inouts, i
would prefer using the first approach to access any submitted form data.
