Understanding the Units
What is a Quart?
The quart gets its name from "quarter" (of a gallon). One US quart is about 5.7% smaller than 1 liter (946 ml vs 1,000 ml). Always use the exact unit your recipe specifies.
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.
