What Recipe scaler looks like

What it does

  • Scale by servings or by baking tin (round or rectangular)
  • Sensibly rounded: whole eggs, half spoons, spices stay as they are
  • Ingredients you don’t have yet go to the shopping list
  • Times from the steps straight into the kitchen timers

Starter templates

On first start you choose what to begin with. Everything can be changed later under “Customize”.

Cooking
Lasagne for four scaled to any number of servings: three eggs instead of 2.75, seasoning stays as it is.
Baking
A sponge for a 23 cm round tin, converted to any other tin, round or rectangular.
Cooking for many
Chilli for four scaled to forty servings for the club party; amounts rounded to whole cans.

Bundle: Kitchen and pantry

Lasagne for nine: the recipe scaler converts the amounts and puts the times into the kitchen timers. Whatever is missing goes onto the shopping list – together with what the pantry tracker reports as low. After shopping the pantry is green again and the amount is in the budget book.
