How do you make a recipe from 6 to 40 serving?

Answer 1

This would depend on the number of people you will be serving, and how much you want to decrease the recipe. For example, if the recipe serves 100 people, and you will have only 50 guests, you would divide each ingredient in half. If you have 75 people, you would subtract 1/4th of the recipe.

Oh mama mia! I would love to be there for this event! LOL

You basically want 1/4 less. Take each measurement and decrease by 1/4. If this is too complicated phone a caterers and most are willing to help you.

You can also go on Google. Type in Google.com

then type in:

Recipe for spaghetti for 90 people.

You should get a good answer.

Enjoy!
