Kitchen Tips

Here are some helpful kitchen tips to help with various cooking tasks:

  • 1 cp = 8 oz = 16 tbsp
  • 1 tbsp = 3 tsp
  • Yeast packets are typically ΒΌ oz
  • For the sprinkle & sweep method, fluff your flour and sprinkle it in your measuring cup. This is how recipes measure. Digging your measuring cup into the flour bag packs the flour in tighter.
  • Stock vs. Broth:
    • Stock = Made from bony parts; has a fuller mouth feel because of the gelatin released from cooked bones.
    • Broth = Made more out of meat.
