Conversions It is important to be aware of how to convert a recipe– and one that you can actually measure!!! If a recipe calls for 1 ½ c. flour, what would you need if you were dividing the recipe in half. ¾ c.

Conversion practice You are having guests over for dinner. The recipe calls for 1/3c. chopped peppers. You need to double the recipe in order to have enough for all your guests. What amount of peppers will you need to chop? 2/3.

Let’s practice…… 3 tsp.= __________Tbsp. 1 ______________Tbsp= 1 c. 16 4 Tbsp=_______________ 1/4c. or 12 tsp.

Conversion practice…. Divide the following in half. 1/3c. ½ * 1/3 = 1/6c. Can we measure this? 1/3c. =__________Tbsp. 5 1/3 Tbsp. so 1/3 Tablespoon is 1 tsp. since there are three teaspoons in a Tbsp. 5 Tbsp+ 1 tsp. 5 Tbsp + 1 tsp.=16tsp 16 tsp. / 2+/= 8 tsp. 8 tsp.= 2 Tbsp. + 2 tsp.

Measurement Techniques Flour: spoon in flour until heaping, then level with a straight edge (dry measuring cup) Sugar: spoon in sugar until heaping, then level with a straight edge (dry measuring cup) Brown Sugar: pack brown sugar into dry measuring cup and level

Measuring Techniques Shortening: Pack shortening into dry measuring cup and level with a straight edge or use the wonder cup Butter/Margarine: measure by weight or use package as a direction or use same method as shortening Liquids: Measure in a liquid measuring cup. Place the cup at eye level on a flat surface. Powdered Sugar: Sift then spoon into a dry measuring cup and level with a straight edge
