Scale salt, spices, and leavening (baking soda, yeast) more conservatively than 1:1, then adjust to taste.

Why Scaling Recipes by Weight Is More Accurate

When scaling recipes, weight-based measurements (grams) scale perfectly. Just multiply. Volume measurements (cups, tablespoons) can be trickier because packing and scooping vary. This is why professional kitchens use grams: 250g of flour is always 250g, but "2 cups of flour" can vary by 20%.
