A. We support various units including weight (g, kg, oz, lb), volume (ml, L, cup, tbsp, tsp), and count (ea).
A. Select count unit (ea) and it will round to 0.5 precision. Example: 2.3 pieces → 2.5 pieces
A. Results are rounded to appropriate precision per unit. g/ml are integers, kg/L have 2 decimals, cup/tbsp/tsp use 0.25 precision.
Measurement units used in cooking vary by country. In Korea, grams (g), milliliters (ml), tablespoons (tbsp), and teaspoons (tsp) are commonly used, while American recipes often use cups, ounces (oz), and pounds (lb). 1 cup is approximately 240ml, 1 tablespoon (tbsp) is 15ml, and 1 teaspoon (tsp) is 5ml. For weight, 1 ounce is about 28g and 1 pound is about 454g. Knowing these conversions will help you follow international recipes more accurately.
Accurate measurement is the foundation of delicious cooking. Dry ingredients like flour and sugar should be lightly spooned into measuring cups without packing. For liquid ingredients, check the measurement at eye level. Butter and margarine are more accurately measured at room temperature. Ingredients measured by count, like eggs, vary by size, so medium-sized eggs (about 55g) are typically used as the standard. Using a kitchen scale allows for precise gram measurements, which is especially useful for baking.
Scaling a recipe by serving size is fundamentally a proportional calculation, but some ingredients are exceptions. Strong ingredients like salt, spices, and baking powder should be used slightly less than the proportional ratio. Cooking time also increases with quantity, so monitor the internal temperature as you adjust. Consider the size of your pots and pans as well — cooking too large a quantity at once can result in uneven heat distribution and different results. For large-batch cooking, dividing the work into multiple batches is effective for maintaining quality.
