Weights & Measures
In this section we will endevour to create a
series of conversion charts to help with
converting weights measures and temperatures
Conversions are approximate for ease of use who
wants to bother working
out the infinitesimal adjustments that are needed for precice
conversion
(1lb=0.454kg) When cooking the Golden rule is only use one set of
measurements as
they are not interchangeable

I have not included the dry conversions of
Cups, tbls (Tablespoons)
and tsp(Teaspoons) here as there is no standard of conversion due
to
the varying of density in different foods IE;
Breadcrumbs (dried) 3tbls = 1oz = 25g
Breadcrumbs (fresh) 7tbls = 1oz = 25g
Flour 1 cup = 4oz = 112g
Lentils 1cup = 8oz =225g
