Standardized Recipes
Overview
Standardized recipes are required for anything made in-house with two or more ingredients. A standardized recipe is one that has been tried, tested, evaluated, and adapted for use by your school food service. It produces a consistent quality and yield every time when the exact procedures, equipment, and ingredients are used.
Tools
Use these tools to develop a new recipe or revise an existing one. Guidance is also provided for recipe crediting and nutrient analysis.
