👨‍🍳 Recipe Scaling Tips

Spices & Seasonings: Scale conservatively - start with less and taste as you go
Baking Soda/Powder: Don't always scale linearly for large batches
Cooking Time: May need adjustment when scaling up or down significantly
Pan Size: Consider if you need different cookware for scaled recipes

📏 Common Measurement Conversions

3 tsp = 1 tbsp	16 tbsp = 1 cup
1 cup = 8 fl oz	2 cups = 1 pint
4 cups = 1 quart	4 quarts = 1 gallon
1 oz = 28.35 g	1 lb = 453.59 g

🍰 Baking vs Cooking

Baking requires more precision than cooking. When scaling baking recipes:

Be exact with measurements - use weight when possible
Chemical leaveners (baking soda/powder) may not scale linearly
Eggs can be tricky - consider using egg weights for accuracy
Test smaller batches first when scaling significantly

Cooking is more forgiving - you can adjust seasonings and ingredients to taste!
