Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
What is a Fluid Ounce?
The US fluid ounce (29.574 ml) and the UK fluid ounce (28.413 ml) are different sizes. The UK version is about 4% smaller. This means a UK recipe calling for 8 fl oz gives you 227 ml, while 8 US fl oz gives you 237 ml. The difference is small per ounce but adds up in larger quantities.
