The Yield tab on a recipe record allows you to enter recipe yield information. Some of the fields can be auto-calculated by StarChef.NET based on the values entered in the other fields.
The Servings field will automatically update to display the number of servings entered on the Ingredients tab.
It is possible for StarChef.NET to calculate some of the values on the Yield tab if the necessary fields used in the calculation are complete. If the relevant auto-calculate check box is disabled then it's not possible to calculate that value.
For example, if you have entered the total Raw Weight for the recipe and the total Cooked Weight then StarChef.NET will be able to calculate the Shrinkage %.
If all ingredients used in the recipe are specified in weight then StarChef.NET will be able to calculate the Raw Weight alternatively you can enter this value manually.
Use the Cooked Weight field to specify the total amount in weight or volume that the recipe yields. A conversion to a different unit type can be added by clicking on the add conversion link.
Enter the total uncooked weight or volume of all the recipe ingredients in the Raw Weight field.
The Shrinkage % can be entered manually or auto-calculated, StarChef.NET will display the calculated wastage cost.
Use the Portion Size field to specify the total amount in weight or volume that one serving yields.
