LESSON 4: MEASUREMENT CONVERSION The Chart for Conversion
1 tsp = 5 g 1 oz= 2 tbsp
A. CONVERSION OF TEMPERATURE
What is temperature? 1 tbsp = 3 tsp 1 oz = 6 tsp
Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of an object or an environment. 1 tbsp = 15 g 1 oz = 30 g
1 c = 8 oz 1 pt= 2 c
What tool is used to measure temperature? 1 c = 16 tbsp 1 pt = 16 oz
The tool used in measuring temperature is a thermometer or temperature scale 1 c = 48 tsp 1 pt = 32 tbsp
1 kg = 2 pt
Units of Measurement for Temperature 1 kg = 4 c
There are 3 main scales used to measure temperature: 1 kg =32 oz
Fahrenheit scale
Celsius scale C. Carrying out Measurement and Calculation of Liquid Ingredients
Kelvin scale Listed below are measurements used for dry ingredients and their abbreviations:
But in cooking, Fahrenheit and Celsius are the common temperature
measurements used.
Formula in Converting Temperature
B. Carrying out Measurement and Calculation of Dry Ingredients
Measurement is the amount, length, or size of an object created by measuring.
In measuring dry ingredients, what tools do we need? The Chart for Conversion
Measuring Spoon 1 tsp = 5 ml 1 fl. oz= 2 tbsp
Measuring cup for dry ingredients 1 tbsp = 3 tsp 1 fl. oz = 6 tsp
Weighing scale 1 tbsp = 15 ml 1 fl. oz = 30 ml
1 c = 8 fl. oz 1 pt= 2 c
Conversion is the process of changing one unit to another unit of measurement. 1 c = 16 tbsp 1 pt = 16 fl. oz
1 c = 48 tsp 1 pt = 32 tbsp
Listed below are measurements used for dry ingredients and their abbreviations: 1 L = 2 pt
1L=4c
1 L =32 oz
