One of my major problems in the ktichen used to be measuring food items required. The recipe might use weights as a unit for measurign the quanity of ingredient or some other unit like teaspoon, measuring cup etc. And there are situations when we do not have these measuring devices at home. The best solution I found is to use conversion calculators which can easily convert grams into cups, cups into spoons and so on.

  • For the most part I use google to calculate for example to convert from 1 cup to teaspoon I will type “1 cup =?tsp” in the search field.
  • In some cases I use this other tool I found on the following website. http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/conversions.htm. There are various kinds of cooking conversion calculators and they are really handy.
