Frequently Asked Questions
Can I convert between volume and weight directly?
Not accurately without knowing the ingredient. One cup of flour does not weigh the same as one cup of honey, so this calculator keeps volume and weight conversions separate.
How many tablespoons are in a cup?
There are 16 tablespoons in 1 US cup. That also equals 48 teaspoons and about 236.6 milliliters.
How do Gas Mark oven settings work?
Gas Mark is a numbered oven scale used mainly in UK recipes. It maps to approximate Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures, such as Gas Mark 4 being about 350°F or 177°C.
Are these cooking conversions US or metric?
The cup, tablespoon, teaspoon, pint, quart, and gallon values use standard US cooking measures. Metric units like milliliters, liters, grams, and kilograms are converted directly.
Why do recipes use both grams and ounces?
Recipes from different countries use different systems. Grams and kilograms are common in metric recipes, while ounces and pounds are common in US recipes.
