This home-sized recipe was used in the Dining Services test kitchen to develop a standardized recipe and may not produce the exact product we serve. We provide the home-sized recipe because all ingredient measures for our quantity recipes are expressed in weights to four decimal places, making them hard to produce in home kitchens with home-sized measuring equipment. Quantity production procedures and equipment needs may also be difficult to accommodate in a home kitchen.
