Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
What is a Fluid Ounce?
A US fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume equal to 29.574 milliliters or 1/8 of a cup. It measures liquid volume and should not be confused with the ounce (oz), which measures weight.
