She used weights for most of the ingredients (like flour), not cups and such, though she converted her recipes for us because that is what we were used to. I've found since then I prefer recipes that call for weights (and I have a decent digital scale). I don't suppose that will make me anything closer to a scientist, though. That is definitely not a strong area for me!

I don't bake so much anymore since we had a new stove and the results of the oven were not that I was used to.biebkriebelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01539958495933835606noreply@blogger.com
