    Kitchen Equivalents


    Share

    Before we freak out about the metric and English systems of measurement, here is my sister, Lorna’s own table.

    1 ounce = 28.4 grams (rounded off)

    1 gram = .035 oz.
    1 kilogram = 2.21 lbs. (or 2.2 lbs.)
    1 oz. = 28.35 gms. (or 28.4 gms., rounded up)
    1 lb. = 453.59 gms. (or 454 gms., rounded up)
    1 tsp. = 4.9 milliliters
    1 tbsp. = 14.8 milliliters
    1 cup = 236.6 milliliters
    1 liter = 1.06 quarts or 1,000 milliliters

    1 oz. = 2 tbsps. = 28.4 gms. = 30 cc.
    1 ml. = 20 drops

    Here’s the rest:

    a few grains = less than 1/8 tsp.
    60 drops = 1 tsp.
    1-1/2 tsps. = 1/2 tbsp.
    3 tsps. = 1 tbsp.
    2 tbsps. = 1/8 cup or 1 fluid ounce
    4 tbsps. = 1/4 cup
    5-1/3 tbsps. = 1/3 cup
    8 tbsps. = 1/2 cup
    10-2/3 tbsps. = 2/3 cup
    12 tbsps. = 3/4 cup
    16 tbsps. = 1 cup
    3/8 cup = 1/4 cup + 2 tbsps.
    5/8 cup = 1/2 cup + 2 tbsps.
    7/8 cup = 3/4 cup + 2 tbsps.
    1 cup = 8 fl.oz.
    2 cups = 1 pint or 16 fl. oz.
    2 pints = 1 quart or 32 fl. oz.
    4 cups = 1 quart
    4 quarts = 1 gallon
    8 quarts = 1 peck
    4 pecks = 1 bushel
    16 ozs. = 1 lb.

    From Lorna’s American kitchen:

    10 extra large eggs yield 1-1/2 cup eggwhites

    1 can evaporated milk = 12 fl. oz. = 1-1/2 cup less 1 tbsp.

    1 can sweetened condensed milk = 14 oz. = 396 gms.
