I'm very very particular about measuring out the exact amount a recipe calls for and putting it all in little dishes before we actually start cooking. But I don't actually have a scale, maybe I'll get one and try it. My wife will probably stop me, because once I get into the details on a particular topic I tend to go overboard.
On the math thing, probably during Christmas when we were trying to stretch a baked French Toast recipe to feed 9 people in stead of 6. Worked great.
- arcticbull 3y agoHaha, honestly I don't have much of a real opinion on this topic. I do suggest the scale, though. I find I get much more consistent results. Even if it's set to ounces ;) The error bars on "one cup of flour" IME are enormous.
- remarkEon 3y agoThis is making me realize that the error bars really live in the kitchen of the recipe maker. My french toast is ruined! I measured the exact amount you said! Not realizing that the original cook was using the Larry David measurement system. "Ehhh that's close enough".
- arcticbull 3y agoHonestly, I hadn't though about that, heh. I'm sure you're right.
