Question

U.S./ European Measurements

I have loads of tasty recipes, but find cooking them a bit of a nightmare because everything is in cups. What exactly is a cup? Is there some cooking cup Americans use in recipes? Roughly how many gramms in a cup? Also how many gramms are in an ounce?

I am so confused......... HELP!

The easiest thing to do would be to find a vessel that measured in milliiters and not to worry about grams and stuff like that.

1 cup = 240 ml, so 1/2 cup = 120 ml and so on...

1 Tbsp. = 15 ml
1 tsp. = 5 ml

Cheers karen! I just need some numbers to work with. Perhaps americans are mor inventive, creative cooks who don't rely on maths as much

.

BTW is there a special cooking cup you use? Just curious
