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?
There are 8 fluid ounces in a US cup and 128 fluid ounces in a US gallon. The UK fluid ounce is slightly smaller (28.413 ml vs 29.574 ml), so UK and US recipes using fluid ounces will differ slightly.
