Night record

Planning here works on its own. Once a night starts, it travels between the three tools by itself.

Cooking notes

Chrome Flip Phone: vodka, green apple, tarragon and vermouth

Steep tarragon cold 90 minutes. Shake. Lemon at service. A barspoon of tarragon, not a quarter ounce. Cold poached chicken with tarragon, or salted almonds with thin apple slices.

Base recipe

This is the base recipe: one batch, 6 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.

What does not scale

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.

Method
  1. Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for chrome flip phone: vodka, green apple, tarragon and vermouth, not a certified kitchen test.
  2. Amounts below are one batch: 6 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
  3. Can be completed up to 1 day ahead. One batch takes about 1 fridge shelf-thirds while it waits.
  4. No heat. Assemble from cold ingredients. Keep covered until service.
  5. Hold time is short (6 min). Finish close to service. Do not guess a longer hold.
  6. Leftover route: Spirits and cordial one day. Lemon at the shake. Tarragon syrup one week; apple cordial three days.
  7. Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Make-ahead

Can be completed up to 1 day ahead. One batch takes about 1 fridge shelf-thirds while it waits.

Scaling

Base recipe: one batch, 6 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 0 minutes at the stove either way.

Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
