After a 4 page origin story of how the author's grandmothers neighbors sister came up with the recipe they you have to scroll through. Now let me find my set of "Gram" spoons ...
I almost never use American recipes because how much is a cup? 3 ounces, is that fluid or dry ounces? Give it to me in grams and litres or I will fail so badly you'll never eat my food again.
Every recipe page should have the Jump to recipe, ability to change to grams or ounces, and change # of servings.
Weighting ingredients is so much easier.
Gobble Gobble!
When I began baking bread several recipes had grams and cups. The recipes tend to turn out so much better using grams. Highly recommend Seasons and Suppers for bread recipes!
I just baked my first recipe given in grams. I worked very hard on these dinner rolls measuring and weighing very carefully to end up with hard bricks. I enjoyed my day in the kitchen.
I'm slowly noting the gram weights in all the recipes I make regularly. One day our kids will be at each other's throats for who gets the JoC copy with all the notations in it.....
Especially if you are using recipes off the internet as the American standard cup is different from other countries. So unless you’re aware of that then you could ruin a dish by simply not using the correct measuring cups.

I'm a metric kinda guy and the imperial stuff is always on the actually useful side.
Only the US, Liberia, and Myanmar don't use metric.
I too can convert grams to oz.

Absolutely agree
They came in pinches and splashes..
I guessed wrong.
And it bugs me to no end how all ingredients are in grams, except for the yeast!
Except Fahrenheit. F reads the way humans experience temp. Celsius just sucks.
