I’m sick of having to look up what country an author is from to know which variant of teaspoon they’re using or how big their lemons are compared to mine. It’s amateur hour out there, I want those homely family recipes up to standard!

What are some good lessons from scientific documentation which should be encouraged in cooking recipes? What are some issues with recipes you’ve seen which have tripped you up?

        1L is 1dm³ (10cm³)

        They aren’t “official” SI units but they dont require funny conversions and i’d much rather see liters then teaspoons

          Yeah I would also preffer liters even over m³. Was being pedantic on you saying it’s the same thing

        To be completely pedantic, neither of those are SI compliant. A quantity-unit combination is not a single word and the two should always be separated by a space.
