How lucky I was to find this site?! I was wondering how to convert recipes to quarters. Mainly cups or ounces with fl oz and pounds translating to the grams or dekagrams for mostly dry ingredients. I plan to email a couple of my favorite recipes to my friends in France and was able to do all the conversions precisely.

I got as it seems a nice fruit cake recipe on line but it is in metric so to be able to make it I had to convert kilograms into ounces — 1 kg = 35.27 oz

Is the dry cup different to a liquid cup, how do they differ in their measurement sizes? Liquid cup versus dry cup explained.

Thanks for the dkg into ounces food conversion tools. I work as a chef cook and also design food menus therefore I have found your web site to be very handy and I’ve been using it a lot.

… plus the other way around from ounces into dkg I forgot to mention, both ways not only from dekagrams to oz

We’ve done various multiple conversion g to dkg and then the recipes’ amounts to oz and lb over this week.

Yes, in a volume sense there is not need to convert liquid cup to dry cup because up to the cup-mark level these two have exactly the same volume. Dry cup is good to scrape off the extra cooking ingredient from the brim or the top and wet cup is good not to spill a fluid out of it when it is being used (wet cup has the mark well below the rim.) But other than that there is not difference between these two cup types, the dry cup can be still used for measuring liquids and the wet cup can be used to measure dry ingredients like flour, sugar, rice, you name it. I myself use only the wet cup type as it’s the only tool I have to mesure both dry or liquid ingredients. I prefer to weight flour etc.

Pretty useful site to convert dry ingredients oz to teaspoons which is what i’ve done. Are you adding extra ingredients?, oils, condensed milk, baking powder, tomato sauce and paste? The existing weight vs volume both for dry and wet units options as you make them for converting recipes are very practical, comprehensive.

bookmarked as my main recipes ingredients converter and in the past few days i’ve visited several times cause heaps of cooking goes around at my place during this festive season

Liked the converter from dkg deka gram or kg kilogram to lbs pounds and to oz ounces for cooking recipes. Or even the idea to add the fluid ounces floz for conversion of values of dry ingredients is fantastic. Often I simply use liquid measures suitable for measuring varieties of dry ingredients found in many - if not all - food recipes because that way the sorting of them gets a lot more quicker.

Finally I learned about the dry cup to cup conversion, it had been on my mind many times.

Who would have thought that a conversion from grams and kilograms measurements into fluid ounces, dry into liquid, can be so direct. These recipes converters make my life and experimenting with cooking recipes really much more easier!

Perfect calculators for changes us cup and oz or lb measure to metric for dry ingredients vs liquid amount for example. And for recipe decagrams conversions to grammes and ounces. Keep up the good work!

I could easily convert how many ml ( milliliters ) are in 1 teaspoon as for measuring yeast and got the answers:
1 teaspoon US ( tea.sp ), equals after conversion : 4.93 milliliter ( ml ), result in fraction : 4 93/100 milliliters ( ml ).
1 tea spoon U.K. ( tea sp ), equals : 5.92 milliliter ( ml ), conversion result in fraction : 5 23/25 milliliters ( ml ).
1 teaspoon metric ( tsp ), equals after conversion : 5 milliliters ( ml ), result in fraction : 5 milliliter ( ml ).

I have a .S. recipe that includes “cornstarch”. I don’t really know what this is, and can’t find it on your site. Help??
Added by admin: Hello Stephanie. Oh I know “cornstarch”, also used for food thickening in meal recipes. It’s slightly coarse just like the semolina. I will add cornstarch ingredient calculator and some info for you this Monday 11 - 01 - 2010.

As a professional chef cook I convert ingredients, from either a wet or dry measures, and change from or to volume or weight units, for cooking recipes on a daily bases. At work in my restaurant or in my kitchen at home. Mainly the conversions cooking between cups and kg quantity level and opposite exchanges and your site is extremely valuable to us. The converting tasks I make on convert-to.com take much less time and that is a gold mine in all the food industry, simply convenient!

Could you please create a recipe conversion algorithm for yeast types, active dry vs. instant vs. compressed/cake yeast? Such a converter would be esp. helpful to people new to the art of baking and bread-making. Thanks! You have a great website here!
