How recipe scaler works
Scale ingredient amounts for a new serving count.
Formula and convention
Scale factor = target / original servings. Multiply each ingredient amount by the factor.A worked example
Four to six servings gives factor 1.5. Amounts 200, 100, and 2 become 300, 150, and 3.
Scope and precision
Keep each ingredient in its original unit. Cooking time, seasoning, vessel sizes, and eggs may need practical adjustment.
