Unitati de masura utile in bucatarie

Daca ai gasit o reteta si vrei s-o incerci dar te lovesti de temperaturi sau gramaje exprimate in unitati de masura straine tie, nu dezarma. Trebuie doar sa le convertesti.

In cele ce urmeaza iti prezentam toate unitatile de masura si echivalentele lor.

In bucatarie sunt folosite in general trei sisteme de masurare:

• american – cup & tablespoon etc
• imperial  – oz & fl oz
• metric (european) – mililitri & grame

Cum traduci unitatile de masura

• teaspoon (tsp) = lingurita
• tablespoon (tbsp) = lingura
• fluid ounce = fl 0z (unitate de masura imperiala)
• cup = ceasca

Cum convertesti

1 Gallon	4 Quarts (= 16 cups)	4 L
1 Tsp. (1 lingurita)	1/3 Tbsp (1/3 lingura)	5 ml

Pentru a converti:

Quarts in litri: cantitatea in quarts x 0.94635

Mililitri in ounce lichid:  cantitatea in mililitri x 0.0338

Litri in quarts: cantitatea in litri x 1.056688  

Ounce de lichid (fluid ounces) in mililitri: cantitatea in ounce x 29.573

Temperatura de coacere in sistemul american este exprimata in Fahrenheit.

275º F	140º C	gradatie aragaz 1
300º F	150º C	gradatie aragaz 2
325º F	165º C	gradatie aragaz 3
350º F	180º C	gradatie aragaz 4
375º F	190º C	gradatie aragaz 5
