Handy Kitchen Weight
Conversions

Some recipes, especially older ones,
give ingredients in pounds and ounces but you may need to know the metric
equivalent – the following chart gives guidance on the conversion rate
between British Imperial measures, metric equivalent and American cups, by
commodity.

As this is not an exact science weights shown
are
approximate.   When following recipes measurements should not be mixed – always
stick to Imperial, Metric or American
throughout the recipe.
