Measurements

I live in the United States and cook with imperial tools, but I’ve found metric grams far more effective than cups, ounces, and pounds. A kitchen scale makes measuring fast, accurate, and reproducible. Some imperial measurements remain (for example, “one 15-ounce can”) because they simplify shopping for prepackaged goods sold in the US.
