Raisins

teaspoons → grams

Raisins weigh 165g per cup, packed. Sultanas and currants weigh approximately the same. Soak raisins in warm water, rum, or brandy for 30 minutes to plump them before adding to baked goods. This prevents them from absorbing moisture from the batter and creating dry spots.

03 // WHY IT MATTERS

READ TIME · 2 MIN

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.
