About Me

My photo
Kate/High Altitude Gardening
Park City, Utah, United States
Certified master gardener, certifiable in many other ways. My garden is a labor of love high in the snowy Wasatch Mountains of northern Utah.

TOUGH LOVE: I garden in a high plains desert forcing water-wise, mostly native, flowers to adapt to harsh, dry conditions. Or, they.. croak!

High Altitude Cooking: Recipe Adjustments (over 6,500 feet)

  • Click HERE for Favorite High Altitude Recipes
  • Baking Powder: Reduce each teaspoon by 1/4-1/2.
  • Baking Soda: Decrease as baking powder. No adjustments needed with acidic (fruit juice, ex.) ingredients.
  • Sugar: Decrease each cup by 2-3 tablespoons.
  • Oven Temp: Increase 25 degrees F, decrease by 25 F. for glass dish.
  • Fats: No adjustment unless substituting, then 1 cup shortening = 3/4 cup butter or oil.
  • Cookies: No adjustments needed.
  • Rice, Veggies, Soups: Increase 25% per cup water, cook longer (Boiling point is lower at high altitude and water evaporates faster.)
  • Yeast Breads: Best of luck to you.
