Precisely scale recipe ingredients while maintaining culinary proportions and practical measurements.

The Recipe Scaler MCP connects your AI agent to a precision ingredient scaling engine. It ensures that when you change the number of servings in a recipe, the proportions remain perfect and the measurements stay practical for real-world cooking. Using scale_ingredients, you can adjust quantities based on serving size changes. The engine uses resolve_measurement_precision to determine appropriate rounding increments for different units (like volume or mass) and format_culinary_units to convert complex decimals into human-readable kitchen measurements like '1 tbsp + 1 tsp' instead of '1.37 tbsp'. This prevents unusable measurements and maintains the integrity of your culinary creations.

Scale this recipe for 10 people: 2 servings, ingredients: [{name: 'flour', quantity: 500, unit: 'g'}, {name: 'sugar', quantity: 1, unit: 'cup'}]

Scaled ingredients for 10 servings: [{name: 'flour', quantity: 2500, unit: 'g'}, {name: 'sugar', quantity: 5, unit: 'cup'}]

How much sugar do I need if I scale a recipe from 2 to 3 servings, where the original amount was 1.5 tablespoons?

You will need 2.25 tablespoons of sugar.

Convert 0.75 tablespoons to a more practical measurement.

0.75 tablespoons is equivalent to 2.25 teaspoons.

The engine calculates a precise scaling ratio by dividing target servings by original servings. It then applies this ratio uniformly to every ingredient in the `ingredientsList` via the `scale_ingredients` tool, ensuring flavor and texture profiles remain unchanged.
