The scaling formula
Scaling a recipe means adjusting all ingredient quantities proportionally to produce more or fewer servings.
Scaling Factor = Desired Servings / Original Servings
When to scale
Cooking for a crowd — Double or triple for a party
Halving a recipe — Cut down for a weeknight dinner
Restaurant portioning — Convert home recipes to prep-sheet quantities
Batch prep — Scale up sauces, doughs, and bases
Tips for accurate scaling
Use weight, not volume — 2 cups of flour varies by packing. 250g is always 250g.
Watch baking ratios — Leavening agents don't always scale linearly above 2×.
Adjust cooking time — A doubled recipe in a larger pan may need different timing.
Season to taste — Salt and spices often need less than a direct multiply.
