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 Tablespoon?
One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.
