First Part of a Recipe: Yield
The yield tells the number and size of servings the recipe will make. This information is important because it tells you how many people you can feed with that recipe. If you have more people to feed, you can increase the yield by doubling or tripling the amount. If you have less people to feed, you can decrease the yield by cutting the amount in half.
