Then click Save Menu Item at the bottom of the page.

The time you provide here will be added to the lead time that is configured on the General Settings page. So for example, if you have a lead time of 30 minutes on the General Settings page and Extra Prep Time of 15 minutes on a specific item, then the order that contains that item is going to have a lead time of 45 minutes.
