  2. Cooking weights and measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_weights_and_measures

    In domestic cooking, bulk solids, notably flour and sugar, are measured by volume, often cups, though they are sold by weight at retail. Weight measures are used for meat . Butter may be measured by either weight ( 1 ⁄ 4 lb) or volume (3 tbsp) or a combination of weight and volume ( 1 ⁄ 4 lb plus 3 tbsp); it is sold by weight but in ...

  3. Resistant starch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistant_starch

    One review estimated that the acceptable daily intake of resistant starch may be as high as 45 grams in adults, [18] an amount exceeding the total recommended intake for dietary fiber of 25–38 grams per day. [19] When isolated resistant starch is used to substitute for flour in foods, the glycemic response of that food is reduced. [20] [21]

  4. Paper density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_density

    The density can be calculated by dividing the grammage of paper (in grams per square metre or "gsm") by its caliper (usually in micrometres, occasionally in mils). [1] The "ISO 534:2011, Paper and board — Determination of thickness, density and specific volume" indicates that the paper density is expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm ...

    Others, notably flour, are more variable. For example, 1 cup of all-purpose flour sifted into a cup and leveled weighs about 100 grams (3½ oz), whereas 1 cup of all-purpose flour scooped from its container and leveled weighs about 140 grams (5 oz).

  7. Sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar

    For added sugars, the guidance is that 100% DV should not be exceeded. 100% DV is defined as 50 grams. For a person consuming 2000 calories a day, 50 grams is equal to 200 calories and thus 10% of total calories—the same guidance as the WHO. [152] To put this in context, most 12-US-fluid-ounce (355 ml) cans of soda contain 39 grams of sugar.

  8. Black pepper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_pepper

    Refined piperine, by weight, is about one percent as hot as the capsaicin found in chili peppers. [53] The outer fruit layer, left on black pepper, also contains aroma-contributing terpenes, including germacrene (11%), limonene (10%), pinene (10%), alpha-phellandrene (9%), and beta-caryophyllene (7%), [54] which give citrusy, woody, and floral ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-fructose_corn_syrup

    The most common forms of HFCS used for food and beverage manufacturing contain fructose in either 42% ("HFCS 42") or 55% ("HFCS 55") by dry weight, as described in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 184.1866). [5] HFCS 42 (approx. 42% fructose if water were ignored) is used in beverages, processed foods, cereals, and baked goods. [5] [17]
