Notes for cooks

To ensure successful results in cooking, we recommend you invest in accurate measuring tools – measuring cups and spoons and a measuring jug are essential and electronic scales are particularly useful as they weigh accurately in both imperial and metric.

Always follow one set of measures in a recipe. Do not mix them up.

DISH USES :

A fan-forced oven unless otherwise specified.

Large eggs (No.7).

Level spoons and cup measurements.

Liquids are always measured in a jug and dry ingredients in measuring cups.

NB: One tablespoon is 15ml (the Australian tablespoon is 20ml).
