Recipe scaling stays tied to the US cup standard (236.588 mL) rather than to mixed cup charts. Garlic Powder can vary with grind size and how loosely it fills a spoon or cup, so the page keeps one fixed basis for repeatable reference use.

Method & Cup Basis

  • Method basis: cup-to-weight conversion anchored to the US customary cup (≈236.6 mL).
  • Applied formula: grams = cups × 136.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
