Frequently asked questions

Can I scale every ingredient linearly?

Most ingredients scale linearly, but salt, spices, leavening and cooking time often need adjustment. Check the dish rather than multiplying everything blindly.

Why does fan oven temperature differ?

Fan ovens circulate hot air more efficiently, so recipes usually reduce the conventional temperature by about 20 °C.
