As the title says, it’s mildly infuriating seeing someone say " cook this at 210° " and stuff like that, we are in a international context!! Do i have to put those cookies in the flames of hell or just around the boiling point of water?!
Edit: the cookie thing was just an example and i throw a random number lol
I’m not from the US and don’t use it, but a cup there is an actual measurement (for liquid - it’s not used to measure weight). 8 fluid ounces or about 240ml. The metric alternative of a US cup is 250ml
We don’t measure weights in cups, but we do measure some ingredients (like flour) by volume, so it’s not uncommon here to see a recipe that calls for 1 cup of flour instead of 120g
However, we do use “ounce” to mean both 1/8 of a cup in volume and 1/16 of a pound in weight…
