The New Zealand tablespoon is 5ml less than the
Australian tablespoon, so care should be taken
when measuring ingredients to compensate for
the variance. For example: 1 Australian tablespoon
= 1 New Zealand tablespoon + 1 New Zealand
teaspoon. It is also important to note that some
New Zealand ingredients, especially flour and
yeast, can differ from Australian equivalents.
metric weighing scales
For consistent results it is recommended that a
set of metric weighing scales be used to weigh
larger quantities as they provide greater accuracy
than measuring cups. Tare (zero) the scales with
the container in position then spoon or pour
ingredients in until the desired weight is achieved.
In general, water weighs the same in grams as it
measures in millilitres.

metric measuring cups and spoons
If using graduated metric measuring cups, it is
important to spoon the dry ingredients loosely
into the required cup. Do not tap the cup on the
bench or pack the ingredients into the cup unless
otherwise directed. Level the top of the cup with
a knife. When using graduated metric measuring
spoons, level the top of the spoon with a straight
edged knife or spatula. do Not uSe taBleWaRe
