Measurements#
I live in the US and cook with imperial measurement tools. However, I’ve found great success in utilizing metric grams in place of imperial cups, ounces, pounds, and so forth. A handy kitchen scale makes measuring ingredients fast, simple, accurate, and reproducible. Some imperial measurements remain in my recipes (ex: one 15 ounce can) mainly because it makes for easy shopping for and cooking with prepackaged goods sold in the US.

This cobbler, which comes from the kitchens of Chez Panisse, prizes the berries above all, using only 1/3 cup of sugar. The dough rounds for the top are placed so they don’t cover all the berries, and the juice from the berries bubbles up around the dough.
