Hi Nhật Nguyễn.
If you want to make a double recipe, you’ll need to adjust the dimensions of the dough and butter proportionally to maintain the same ratios.
Double Recipe Calculation:
▪️ Base dough (1350 g): If you double the quantity, it will be 2700 g of dough.
▪️ Dough rectangle:The current rectangle is 50 x 30 cm, with an area of 1500 cm². Doubling the recipe means doubling the area, which gives 3000 cm².
To maintain similar proportions:
▪️New size: ~71 x 42 cm.
(You can slightly adjust the dimensions, but they should maintain a 5:3 ratio).
Butter square:
The original square is 30 x 30 cm, with an area of 900 cm². Doubling this would give an area of 1800 cm², resulting in a square of ~42 x 42 cm.
Final Answer:
▪️New dough rectangle size: 71 x 42 cm.
▪️New butter square size: 42 x 42 cm.
Make sure to properly refrigerate the dough and butter to ensure they w
ork well during laminating.
Best regards.
