MEASURING ANd WEIGHING
Care should be taken when weighing and
measuring ingredients to achieve accuracy
and consistency. Recipes in this instruction
book have been developed using Australian
metric weights and measurements.

CUSTOMERS — NEW ZEALANd
METRIC MEASUREMENTS
1 teaspoon

1 cup
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 important to note that New Zealand
ingredients, especially flour and yeast, can
differ from Australian equivalents. Suitable
New Zealand Products have been listed in the
'Vital Ingredients' section of this booklet.
We suggest these New Zealand products be
substituted for the Australian products in
the Recipe Section.

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
ml
until the desired weight is achieved.
