  • examples from professional recipes – measurements are given as weights (in grams) – no worrying about how much brown sugar in a “packed cup” or if your cup of flour has been sifted enough or what exactly is meant by a “cup of spinach”
  • examples from baking recipes – measurements are given as percentages – allows easy scaling up and down
