I see so many recipes that are in metric and sometimes it’s confusing. How many grams are there in a cup of flour? 125 grams. If you use a kitchen scale you’ll always get the amount right.
I was halfway through getting these volume to gram equivalents and my husband said, “someone’s already done it!” He was right. GourmetSleuth.com has it already. Here are a few equivalents for you if you’ve wondered what standard ingredients are when changed to grams. We all want to cook the latest trendy food but sometimes it comes in metric. This table can help.
