Metric Conversions
A lot of English recipes are need for these conversions as i do like Jamie's way of cooking and Nigella as well. Placing the conversions on the fridge is a great idea.

Lol, I'm a science geek so cooking by weight not volume appeals to me. You get alot of metric as well since its the scientific unit of choice. My husband doesn't have them memorized like I do though.

I do not think everyone is a math wizard or a science geek so this post would be for those who need it.  |
