Jasmine Rice
Uncooked jasmine rice weighs 190g per cup. Slightly heavier than basmati because the grains are shorter and plumper. Famous for its floral aroma and slightly sticky cooked texture — ideal for Thai and Southeast Asian dishes where rice should hold its shape but cling slightly. Cook with 1:1.25 rice-to-water ratio. Don't over-rinse if you want some of that signature stickiness retained.

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.
