Spice scaling batch recipes means increasing dried herbs and ground spices by less than the full volume multiplier when you double or triple a pot—heat concentrates and palates fatigue on day three of leftovers. Start near 1.
7× when doubling, taste at simmer, then add more. Fresh garlic and ginger can scale closer to linear.
