9.1 What is standardisation?

Standardisation is about setting precise benchmarks for the handling of ingredients and cooking processes. Instead of relying on orally transmitted traditions, written and standardised recipes ensure that the dish always looks and tastes the same, regardless of who is on shift.

Recipes should contain not only a list of ingredients but also precise information about portion size, temperature, cooking time and technique. This reduces the likelihood of deviations that distort both quality and cost.
