BEHIND YOUR NUMBER

A little understanding
goes a long way.

How does scaling work?

Every ingredient is multiplied by the same factor: new servings ÷ original servings. Doubling a recipe for 4 to serve 8 uses a factor of 2.

What doesn’t scale simply?

Salt, spices, raising agents and liquid for long cooking often need a little less than the straight maths suggests when scaling up. Cooking times change less than amounts.

Is this calculator for me?

It suits healthy adults planning everyday eating. It is not medical advice. If you are pregnant, under 18, or have kidney disease, diabetes or another condition, check with your GP or a registered dietitian.
