Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 5 tablespoons of shredded cheddar?

5 tablespoons of shredded cheddar is 35 grams, based on 113 g per level US cup.

Is a tablespoon the same everywhere?

Almost. US and UK tablespoons hold about 15 ml and teaspoons about 5 ml. Australia is the exception: an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons), so use ¾ of an Australian tablespoon to match a US one.

Should I weigh shredded cheddar or measure it by volume?

Measure liquids in a clear jug at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt or sour cream should be levelled in a dry cup. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
