CONVERTING RECIPES • To change a recipe if the yield is not the amount needed. • At home what do you usually do? • Why might it be different in a restaurant?
To increase or decreaserecipe yields; • Decide how many servings you need, or the DESIRED YIELD • Determine the CONVERSION FACTOR or the number that each ingredient amount is multiplied by in order to adjust the yield of the recipe
Desired yield Original yield =Conversion factor If a recipe serves 8 And you need to serve 4 What is the conversion factor?
Multiply each ingredient amount by the conversion factor. This keeps all the ingredients in the same proportion as in the original recipe.
