Why Recipe Scaling Is Not Always Linear

Doubling a recipe seems simple: just double every ingredient. But seasoning, leavening agents, and cooking times do not always scale linearly. Salt and spices should be increased by about 1.5 times when doubling, not 2 times, and adjusted to taste. Baking powder and baking soda should be scaled carefully because too much can cause a metallic taste or excessive rise followed by collapse. Our recipe scaler gives you the scaled amounts and flags ingredients that need special attention.
