Beef Broth
Beef broth weighs 240g per cup. Richer, deeper, and meatier than chicken broth — essential for French onion soup, beef stews, and gravies. For maximum flavor at home, roast bones at 220°C (425°F) for 45 minutes before simmering with vegetables and tomato paste for 6-8 hours. Commercial "beef broth" is often weak and salty; "beef stock" or "bone broth" labels indicate richer products. Refrigerate up to 5 days; freeze longer.

03 // WHY IT MATTERS
If your cookies spread, your bread is gummy, or your cake sinks — flour weight is usually why.
A scooped cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 125g to 180g. That's a 44% range — enough to wreck a cake.
Modern recipes use the spoon-and-level method: fluff the flour, spoon it into a dry measuring cup without packing, then sweep flat with a knife.
The scoop method — pushing the cup directly into the bag — packs in 40-50% more flour.
