Conversion tables — How to convert ingredients

These conversion tables will help you how to convert ingredients for your recipe so it turns out well and all measurements are accurate.

To properly prepare your recipe, you will need to use the conversion tables provided to accurately convert the weight, volume, length, and temperature of all the necessary ingredients. These Fast2eat conversion tables will allow you to ensure that your recipe turns out perfectly and that all measurements are precise and accurate. The weight of something can change depending on how you measure it. Here, we measured using Dip & Sweep, putting the measuring cup in the flour and levelling it off with a knife. Note that the volume-to-weight conversions are not exact because it depends on how you measure and the ingredient. So, using a standard Measuring Cup and Spoon Set and liquid Measuring Set instead of just a regular drinking cup is better. In Canada, we use a cup that equals 250ml (8.45 US fl oz).

US measure - Ounces vs. Fluid Ounces

Ounces and fluid ounces are different. Ounces are for measuring weight, and fluid ounces are for measuring volume. It can be confusing because sometimes a recipe might ask for eight ounces of chocolate chips, which could mean weight or volume.
In the US, if a recipe lists a dry ingredient in ounces, it means weight and should be measured on a scale. If it lists a wet ingredient in ounces, it means volume and should be measured with a liquid measuring cup.
Ingredients like chocolate chips, flour and rice are measured in ounces (weight), while milk, honey and oil are measured in fluid ounces (volume). However, baking recipes sometimes list weights before volumes; in that case, all ingredients should be measured on a scale.

How to replace meringue powder with powdered eggs?

Usually, 2 tsp of meringue powder + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg white.

While replacing meringue powder with powdered eggs, always substitute 1 tbsp of meringue powder with 2 tbsp of powdered eggs. Do not alter the quantity of the water, and proceed with the recipe in the usual way.

For one 8″ pie

  • 9 tbsp meringue powder
  • 5 tbsp warm water
  • dash of flavouring (optional)

For larger quantity

  • 454g (1lb) of meringue powder
  • 296ml (10oz) warm water

Place meringue powder and water in a bowl. Stir until dissolved, then whip at high speed until the desired peak is obtained (approximately 7 minutes).

Royal Icing:

  • 1 cup (152g/5.37oz) meringue powder
  • 3 1/2 cups (444g/15.65oz) icing sugar lightly packed lump free
  • 148ml (5oz) hot tap water (38-49°C/100-120 °F)
  • Pinch of cream of tartar (optional)

Blend meringue powder and water at low speed for 1 minute. Blend for 4-7 minutes at high speed until thick, soft peaks form.

Gradually blend in icing sugar (and cream of tartar if desired) while mixing at low speed. Keep icing covered with a damp cloth while using. Store in an airtight container; no need to refrigerate. Re-blend at low speed before use.

Note: Keep all utensils completely grease-free for proper icing consistency.

Yield: 4 cups.

For stiffer icing, use less water.

Can You Substitute Agar for Gelatin?

Gelatin comes from animals, while agar comes from red algae. Agar is a good substitute for gelatin if you’re a vegetarian. It’s gummier than gelatin and sets more firmly at room temperature. When made into jellies, agar has a higher melting point than gelatin. This means it won’t melt in your mouth, giving it a distinctive firmness. Agar is good to use in hot countries where gelatin puddings would melt in the sun. Gelatin is better for softer foods like mousse. Use gelatin or cornstarch in soups instead of agar if you want better results.

How to Substitute Agar for Gelatin?
Agar is more potent than gelatin. To produce a similar consistency of a reliable gelling agent, mix 1 cup of liquid to:
agar powderagar flakesgelatin powder
1 tsp1 tbsp (3 tsp)8 tsp
Agar-agar is also called:

Chinese gelatin, Chinese isinglass, Japanese gelatin, or Japanese isinglass.

Is a Tomato a Fruit or a Vegetable?

Tomatoes are often considered a vegetable even though they are technically a fruit. Nutritionists classify them as vegetables because they are commonly used in savoury dishes and not in desserts. Other fruits that are sometimes considered vegetables include cucumbers, squashes, pea pods, peppers, eggplants, and okra. Despite the classification, tomatoes are still a healthy and delicious food to eat.

Fresh-to-dried herb converter

Use this easy formula as a fresh-to-dried herb converter: 1 teaspoon of dried herbs for every 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs.

In other words, use three times as much fresh herbs when the recipe calls for dried and 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs when the recipe calls for fresh.

Not All Vanilla Is Created Equal - When to Use Pure Vanilla Extract, Imitation Vanilla Flavor, fresh vanilla bean, vanilla paste, Vanilla powder

To make your sweets taste better, use real vanilla. It’s especially important for things like pudding and frosting, but it will improve the taste of all kinds of treats, like cookies and cakes. When you look for vanilla, make sure it’s made from real vanilla beans, water, and alcohol. The alcohol helps get the flavour out of the beans. If you don’t like boozy flavour, try the Simply Organic Non-alcoholic Vanilla Flavouring.

Imitation vanilla flavour (or vanilla flavour)

If you want to make, a recipe and vanilla taste isn’t the most important thing. Using imitation vanilla flavour might be acceptable. However, if you want the recipe to have a strong vanilla taste, you should spend more on pure vanilla extract. It’s hard to tell if you used imitation or pure vanilla extract in things like cakes and cookies. Imitation vanilla flavour can contain some natural vanilla. Still, most of it is made from wood pulp, clove oil, and fermented bran. It doesn’t taste very good and might not hold up well in the oven.

Vanilla beans

Vanilla comes from Madagascar, Tahiti, and Mexico; each country has a different type of vanilla that tastes slightly different. You can use any kind of vanilla in any recipe. Vanilla beans are the most expensive, but they are pure and give your food a strong vanilla taste. They also have little brown sprinkles in them that we like. There are other options if you don’t want to use vanilla beans.

Make Your Own vanilla extract

Don’t throw away vanilla pods if you’ve already removed the specks. You can use them to make your vanilla extract – just put one or two pods in sugar and your preferred alcohol (bourbon, vodka, rum, or brandy) and let it sit for at least eight weeks (ideally, several months).

Pure vanilla bean paste (aka vanilla paste)

Vanilla bean paste combines vanilla extract, real vanilla bean seeds, sugar, and a natural thickener. It has a thick, intense flavour and smooth, syrupy-like consistency that won’t make your batters or frostings too thin. You can also use it as a substitute for simple syrup in cocktails and mocktails. In recipes, vanilla bean paste is an excellent replacement for vanilla extract or vanilla bean seeds.

Vanilla powder

Vanilla powder is a pale powder made of ground vanilla beans and cornstarch. It’s great in recipes that shouldn’t turn brown. It’s good in baked goods that can’t take extra liquid or high heat. You can sprinkle it on baked goods, add it to coffee, or use it to flavour pancake or waffle mixes.

Almond extract

Almond extract is made from the oil of almonds and tastes like sweet almonds. It tastes stronger than vanilla. The recipe will have a slight almond flavour, so ensure it goes well with the final product.

Other substitutes

Maple syrup tastes like vanilla extract and works fine in recipes if you don’t have real maple syrup, pancake syrup, or honey. Maple syrup has more sugar than vanilla, so reduce the sugar in your recipe. You could also use almond, oat, cashew, or vanilla-flavoured soy milk if you’re fine with a little vanilla flavour. For vanilla extract, vanilla beans are soaked in alcohol, so that you can use liquor instead of vanilla extract. If you don’t mind alcohol, try rum or brandy to replace vanilla extract. You can also use flavour extracts like orange, lemon, or peppermint. Still, it will change your recipe’s flavour thoroughly. Choose a flavour that goes well with the other ingredients.

I hope my easy tips will give you the confidence to step into the kitchen and prepare delicious meals to eat with a handful of close friends.
