料理における重量計量と体積計量

定義

料理における重量計量は、体積単位(カップ、大さじ)の代わりに質量単位(グラム、オンス)を使用して材料の量を指定する方法。

解説

A cup of sifted flour weighs about 113 g, while an unsifted packed cup can reach 160 g—a 40% difference that collapses a cake recipe. Professional and pastry recipes almost universally specify grams for this reason. A kitchen scale also reduces the number of measuring cups to wash. The US remains unusual globally in relying on volume measures for home baking.
