How can I scale the servings?

Use the portion selector near the recipe title. All ingredient amounts adjust instantly so you can cook for one or for a crowd without mental math.

Do you suggest ingredient swaps?

Seasonal swap ideas and substitutions are highlighted in the step-by-step instructions, so you can use what is ripe in your kitchen garden or market.

Can I prepare parts of the recipe ahead?

Look for make-ahead notes in the steps. Many sauces, doughs and roasted vegetables can be prepared earlier and finished just before serving.
