Bookmarks iOS 14 ipad

How do I bookmark multiple tabs in iOS 14 on iPad? I already have the folder for them. The user guide says

Bookmark open tabs

Pinch closed with three fingers to view all your tabs.

Touch and hold one of your tabs, then tap Add Bookmarks for [number of] Tabs.

View and organize your bookmarks

Tap , then tap Bookmarks.

To create a new folder or to delete, rename, or reorder bookmarks, tap Edit.

Tap Done to save your changes.

But there is no Add Bookmarks option when I touch and hold one of my tabs in the view all tabs page. (and no sidebar icon. Even though I already have the folder I need, it may be diagnostic for you to know this. Instead I have an open book icon at the top.)

or is there a work-around other than bookmarking each of 40 bookmarks individually?

thank you so much.
