  • Did you know that there are four tablespoons in a quarter cup?
  • Did you know that one tablespoon of water is the same as 15 ml of water …
  • … and one cup of water contains 250 ml?
  • Did you know that the boiling point of water is 100º C which is the same as 212º F
  • Did you know that the freezing point of water is 0º C which is the same as 32º F
  • Now, here is something you probably didn’t know:

As your elevation increases, the boiling point of water decreases – because of the lesser atmospheric pressure.  To compensate for the lower boiling point of water, the cooking time must be increased. Turning up the heat will not help cook food faster.

This book helps you with many of the little details that are important in the kitchen, but ones that you probably don’t want to clutter your mind with.
