Hi all,
I really hope this isn't a perennial question but I couldn't find any help
anywhere else.
Most of the recipes I run across give ingredients in terms of cups and I
recently took a baking class where I was told that it is better to measure
ingredients in pounds (weight vs. volume) especially flour. So my question
is, how much of a difference does this make, and is there a rule of thumb
for converting cups of flour to pounds of flour? Is there a golden rule that
says the perfectly sifted and properly settled cup of flour should equal a
specific weight.
Thanks.
