Weight and volume conversion guide
Weight and volume conversions are essential in cooking, especially when following American recipes. The US uses cups, ounces and pounds, while Canada and Europe use grams, kg and liters.
Essential cooking conversions
1 cup = 250 ml | 1 tablespoon = 15 ml | 1 teaspoon = 5 ml | 1 lb = 453 g | 1 oz = 28.35 g | 1 US gallon = 3.785 liters. These conversions are critical for successfully adapting American recipes to metric measurements.
Stone: the British unit
The stone (st), still used in the UK for body weight, equals 6.35 kg or 14 pounds. A 70 kg person weighs approximately 11 stone. This unit is not used in official medical contexts.
