The Five Steps for Changing recipe yields are: • 1. Decide on the desired yield. • 2. Calculate the conversion factor • 3. Multiply each ingredient amount by the conversion factor. • 4. Convert ingredient amounts to logical, measurable quantities. • 5. Make any necessary adjustments to equipment, temperature, and time.
The Metric System • Four Basic Metric Units of Measure • Gram (weight) • Liter (volume) • Degree Celsius (temperature) • Meter (length) • Metric Prefixes • Kilo- 1,000 (1 kilogram equals 1,000 grams) • Deci- 1/10 (1 deciliter equals one-tenth of 1 liter) • Centi- 1/100 (1 centiliter is one one-hundredth of 1 liter) • Milli- 1/1,000 (1 millimeter is one one-thousandth of 1 meter)

The Ultimate Brownie Cont. Chocolate 1lb x $5.50 =$5.50 Butter 1.5lb x $2.50 =$3.75 Eggs 1.5lb x $5.50 =$8.25 Sugar 3lb x $2.50 =$7.50 Vanilla $6.50/ 32=0.203x2 =$0.41 Cake Flour 1lb x $3.50 =$3.50 Baking Soda $2.75/96=0.029x1.5 =$0.04 Chopped Nuts 1lb x $1.49 =$1.49 Total cost of recipe =$36.45
Stages at which costs can be controlled: • Purchasing • Receiving • Storage • Issuing • Preparation and Production
Recommended Storage Temperatures Fresh Meats 32 F to 36 F (0 C to 2 C) Fresh Produce 40 F to 45 F (5 C to 7 C) Fresh Dairy 38 F to 40 F (4 C to 5 C) Products Fresh Fish 30 F to 34 F (-1 C to 1 C) Frozen Foods -10 F to 0 F (-23 C to -18 C) Dry Foods Room Temp (10 C to 21 C) 50 F to 70 F
Equation for Calculating Cost of Goods Sold Opening Inventory + Monthly Purchases - Employee meals • Interunit transfers (A transfer of food items between two areas of the same establishment) • Closing inventory = Cost of goods sold
Important Formulas for Portion Control of Meat, Poultry, and Fish Total value of usable item = Cost per usable pound Weight of usable item Cost per usable pound = Cost per usable pound 16 ounces per pound Portion size x Cost per usable ounce = Portion cost
Yield Percentage Formulas • To calculate the quantity needed, use the formula: • Quantity= [Number of portions x Portion size (expressed as a decimal)] / Yield percentage • If you want to know the number of portions, the formula can be rewritten as: Number of portions= If you’re interested in the portion size, the formula becomes: Portion size= If you know all but the yield percentage, you can calculate it with this formula: Yield percentage=
