Equivalencies 1 gal. = 4 qt. 1 qt. = 2 pt. 1 pt. = 2 c. 1 c. = 8 oz.

Equivalencies – fluid ounces For Liquids: 1 c = 8 oz. 1 pt = 2 c = 16 oz. 1 qt = 2 pt = 4 c = 32 oz. ½ gal = 2 qt = 4 pt = 8 c =64 oz. Figure it out! 1 gal = __ qt = __ pt = __ c = __ oz

Equivalencies - pounds 1 lb = 16 oz. 1 lb butter=2 cups = 4 sticks How much is in one stick?

Measuring ingredients There are two kinds of measuring: Dry measuring Liquid measuring They each have their own types of equipment and techniques to use. Note: moist ingredients use same equipment, different techniques.
