If I was writing a fanfic sequel to the old testament I would call it the new testament and say that Judas was paid 30 silver.
It makes me think of how Mormons will point to such connections between the Book of Mormon and the Bible as proof. You’d expect such connections both if it was what the faithful narrative claims it to be or if it was a creation pulled from a hat that was attempting to reference what came before.
Oh, I agree. If I use a recipe regularly I’ll often convert it or if I’m creating one from scratch I’ll usually just have everything by weight from get go.
P.S. Nothing makes me annoyed at a recipe faster than seeing something like 2.5 cups of chopped broccoli.
You’re welcome. A nice resource for a bunch of other ingredients for baking is this one from King Arthur Flour.
1 tablespoon of butter is ~14 g. For a more complete conversion (with respect to butter): 1 stick = 0.5 cup = 8 tablespoons = 24 teaspoons = 113 g.
A cup in US Customary is 237 ml (often rounded to 240 ml). Americans don’t exist in a world where they have to play “is this cup US Customary or different measure also calling itself a cup measure?” as all their measuring cups are going to be in US Customary. Butter usually comes in quarter pound sticks with teaspoon (4.9 ml) and tablespoon (14.8 ml) measures printed on the wrapper so you can just cut a hunk of the appropriate volume from the stick and if you were using a measuring spoon to measure butter you’d use a level measure to create consistency and not just let it heap up.
Note: I prefer weighing ingredients and in metric at that. I’m just answering your questions.
Meijer and Walmart store brands of cheap ass white bread are 22 slices, Kroger is 21, and for a name brand example Sunbeam is 22. Nicer bread like Pepperidge Farm or Brownberry/Oroweat tends to be in the range of 16 slices per loaf (baring the thin sliced stuff) though.
Indeed. I can grab a loaf of cheap white bread from my local grocery store for under $2 which is cut into 22 slices.
I think it’s more just a PR thing to make you feel good about that company while using your own money.
Yep, even without any direct financial benefit there is certainly a reason to engage in such behavior. The store gets you to associate it with the charity campaign and they’ll make hay over the amount of donations they helped collect and their partnership with the charity. Drives for employee donations can also be used in a similar manner.
That is my preferred breakfast. I prepare it the night before in a glass to allow the bottom layer tons of time to soften like you say but then I mix it all just before eating. I tend to use kefir since if I want fil I’ve gotta make it myself but as you say anything similar gets the job done.
