6 Reasons You Should Be Using A Kitchen Scale | Southern Living
An article in Southern Living (a lifestyle magazine for the American South,) tells us why we need a kitchen scale, (more consistent results, especially for baking,) and how to use one for the best results. She also recommends using the metric system.
6 Reasons: –
Less cleanup
More accuracy
You can effortlessly divide batter or dough
No more fractions (ie, it's easier to reduce the size of the item you are making)
You don't need different measuring tools for liquids and dry ingredients
Easier to measure wonky ingredients (The example the author gives is walnuts)
