All baking recipe ingredients should be in weight, not volume. - eviltoast

I’m tired of guessing which country the author is from when they use cup measurement and how densely they put flour in it.

    IMO anything sold by weight should be measured by weight in a recipe.

    I could have an exception for things under 20g, which scales seem to get wrong a lot. I can do spoons, but not cups.

    Also: Metric only. A tablespoon is anywhere from 13g to 20g depending on who you’re talking to. A gram is always a gram.

      Volume and weight are different, a tablespoon of salt, oil, and vanilla extract are all going to weigh differently.
