The kitchen is the most maths-heavy room in the house. Nobody warned you.

Halving a recipe seems straightforward until it involves ⅔ of a cup. Scaling up a dish for twelve people turns into a fraction problem nobody wants to solve mid-prep. Reading a nutrition label shouldn't require a spreadsheet - but it kind of does if you want to actually understand it. Yet here we are.

The Kitchen Math Workout (vegan-friendly) covers the real calculations that happen in real kitchens. Scaling recipes up and down. Converting between cups and millilitres, ounces and grams. Calculating cooking times and coordinating multiple dishes. Reading nutrition labels accurately. Costing ingredients per serving. And the ratio maths that makes baking actually work. Every problem is drawn from actual cooking and food situations.

Every example in this book is plant-based. Lentil soups, almond butter, oat milk, chickpea curries, cashew cream, coconut rice. If your kitchen runs on plants - or you are moving in that direction - this book was written for you. The maths is the same regardless of what is in the pot. But the context here is yours.

Every chapter covers one essential kitchen skill and gives you enough practice to actually trust yourself with it.
