Notes
Before you measure
- Turkish water glasses range from 200 to 250 ml; this converter uses 250 ml. When a recipe gives grams, trust the grams.
- A scale is always the most accurate. Figures here are approximate: how you fill the cup changes the weight.
- For flour, spoon it into the cup and level it off; don’t pack it down. Brown sugar is the exception: press it in.
- Fan ovens run hotter; as a rule of thumb, set them about 20°C lower than the recipe says.
