Doubled and it tastes off
Double a recipe and it can still taste off, because salt, water and cooking time don't scale evenly with the ingredients.
CONVERT
Convert by servings
Paste the recipe into a chatbot with the new number of servings, and ask it to recalculate each amount in spoons and bowls for easy measuring.
SEASON SLOWLY
Add seasoning gradually
For salt, sugar and fish sauce, ask AI to list slightly less. Seasoning bit by bit and adding more later is easier.
BIG POT
Watch for doneness
A bigger pot changes the heat and time. Ask AI for the signs a dish is cooked through; don't just watch the clock.
