Review on 🍽️ Greater Goods Kitchen Table Top Scale: Ultra Accurate Model for Precise Food and Coffee Weighing, Ideal for Nutrition and Meal Prep, Measures in Grams, Ounces, Milliliters, and Pounds (Double Black) by Tina Peterson

Don't start baking without them. Weighing ingredients for cooking is not as important as ensuring accuracy for baking. For example, if you have several people measure a cup of flour (by volume), you'll likely get slightly different results. Probably not disastrous results, but everyone is different, while for example 8 gr. There will always be 8 ounces of flour, whether sifted, ground, etc. So if you want great results, weigh your ingredients. This is particularly useful when measuring liquids, as you can simply weigh your mixing bowl and eliminate in-cup measuring, and then pour it into the bowl, leaving some of the ingredients in the cup. Another example: when you weigh out something like sour cream in a mixing bowl or saucepan, all the ingredients end up in the product instead of staying in a cup you can never completely scrape out. A scale with a "zero" function is really useful because you can add an ingredient, press the "zero" button, and add more ingredients as if you were working with an empty container. This works with up to 11 pounds of ingredients. You can also use this to weigh other things e.g. B. Mailer packages where postage is calculated in ounces and pounds. Once you get used to weighing instead of measuring, you'll never come back — and you'll get frustrated with recipes that only give you amounts of ingredients by volume. If I have a recipe that only contains volume information, I make a note and add that information to my recipe. You can find accurate weight measurements for almost anything online. King Arthur, flour manufacturers have a pretty decent list of equivalent ingredient sizes, and for small amounts being able to measure in grams is very handy. Buying one of these will really up your baking/cooking game. Walk. Bake!
