Guide to Weights & Measures

When I first started cooking with my Thermo, I was so accustomed to using the basic measurements 1 cup, 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon that I found measuring everything into grams time consuming and, in many cases, not necessary.

So if you are like me and cook easily using a 1 cup measurement, you will find this table a FABULOUS guide to helping you use your thermo too.

TIP: When you measure dry ingredients like flour and sugar, always hold the measuring cup over the thermo bowl while you fill it up.
