I need some help! I need to know Japanese measurements for cooking.
I know gram is guramu and Kilogram is kiroguramu.
The thing I need help with is measurements like 1/2 a cup, 1/4 of a cup etc and spoon measurements like one teaspoon, one table spoon etc… you get what I mean!
Any help or a website link would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Personally I prefer onlineconversion.com to do my conversions but perhaps there’s a cooking-specific site for measurement conversions. What is trickier is when Japanese cookbooks list 1cc, which is usually not on conversion charts (it’s 1mL). Here’s a chart http://connect.ab.ca/~buddy/halrcp.htm

Agreed you would either need a conversion website or one that specifically translates what you are after.

if the recipe says half cup, then you need to get a standard cup, the japanese standard cup is the same as the US.
What you are asking is how many gram in 1/2 or 1/4 or 1 teaspoon?
Different items weight differently when losely fit in the cups or spoons so it won’t work if you put a gram value. For example one cup of sugar is actually much heavier than on cup of flour.
