Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.

Cooking time

Nothing cooks, so batch size does not change a cooking time. Chilling does not scale either — it is set by the depth of the container, so a double batch in one deep tub takes far longer than two shallow ones.

1. Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for butter lettuce with green goddess and seed crunch, not a certified kitchen test.
2. Amounts below are one batch: 8 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
3. This dish can be completed up to 2 days ahead. Cold storage is the real limit — do not make it ahead if the fridge is already tight.
4. No heat. Assemble from cold ingredients. Keep covered until service.
5. Hold time is short (8 min). Finish close to service. Do not guess a longer hold.
6. Leftover route: Assembled leftovers the same day. Dressing three days cold. Seed crunch a week airtight. Washed dry lettuce about two days.
7. Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
