The cooking units works like this: it scales recipe ingredient quantities to a new serving count and converts between volume and weight measures for common ingredients. Everything happens on your device - the input never leaves your tab unless the tool clearly states it performs a server-side lookup.

Frequently asked questions
Can I double baking recipes safely?
Volumes scale linearly but pan sizes, bake times and leavening do not - bake in two pans rather than one deep one.
How does recipe scaling handle eggs and spices?
It scales every listed quantity by the serving ratio, so fractional results like 1.5 eggs appear - round pantry-friendly items yourself and keep the ratio exact for leaveners and liquids.
Are volume-to-weight conversions ingredient-specific?
Yes - a cup of flour (120 g) and a cup of sugar (200 g) differ hugely, so the tool uses per-ingredient density factors for the common bakes rather than a single blanket factor.
