Many UK cooks prefer weighing ingredients in grams, but some recipes, especially older or American ones, use ounces. Knowing how to convert between the two saves time and avoids kitchen mishaps. Whether you're following a classic recipe or experimenting with new ideas, accurate measurements make all the difference.
For the best results, use a digital kitchen scale to weigh your minced onion. Scoop the onion into a bowl on the scale until it hits 250g (or 8.82 ounces). If you don’t have a scale, loosely packed minced onion fills about 2.5 US cups, but weighing is far more precise.
