Measure quantities even without scale
Measuring is also possible without a scale! Although there was a similar tip here some time ago, but this is not as extensive as this compilation.
In addition, here are also quantities for the various ingredients per serving / person for different dishes included, which can then, if you expect guests, easily convert to the required number of people.
For many years, I had these helpful tables (there are excerpts from an ancient newspaper) attached to a brochure cover on the inside of a door of my kitchen cabinet so that I can access them at any time - and they have helped me very often.
I have written down the two tables here, because the information in the photos are not quite as recognizable. I think these reviews will definitely be helpful for the one or the other / others!
Measure quantities without scale:
| 1 cup *) | 1 tablespoon *) | 1 teaspoon *) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flour | 125 g | 10 g | 3 g |
| oatmeal | 100 g | 8 g | |
| cornstarch | 110 g | 10 g | 3 g |
| semolina | 130 g | 12 g | |
| fine flour | 125 g | 10 g | |
| sugar | 180 g | 15 g | 4 g |
| legumes | 170 g | ||
| rice | 180 g | 20 g | |
| Margarine or butter | 225 g | 15 g | |
| salt | 15 g | 5 g | |
| oil | 185 g | 10 g | |
| baking powder | 3 g | ||
| 8 tablespoons water = 125 ml | *) each painted full | ||
The cup information should be measured or weighed best, because cups can be very different in size!
Properly measure - quantities per serving:
| Quantity per serving / person | |
|---|---|
| Soup as a starter | 250 ml |
| Soup as a main course | 500 ml |
| Pasta as a soup insert | 20 g |
| Pasta as a main course | 80? 125 g |
| legumes | 60? 100 g |
| Rice or barley | 60 g |
| potatoes | 250? 400 g |
| vegetables | 200? 250 g |
| mushrooms | 125 g |
| Meat with bones | 120? 150 g |
| Meat without bones | 100? 130 g |
