Question.
When measuring things such as half a cup of cooked rice do I need to press it down to compact it so it fits half a cup?

going by volume is an approximation of the weight.

the other anons are shitting on you because you're not weighing your food.

weigh your food and you'll be fine.

yes that means get a food scale.

My rule is that rice and pasta double in weight after cooking if it's too late OP
>>
>>39550811
You set the tare weight on your scale with the empty cup then add rice and weigh it all to get only the weight of the rice.

There. Spoon fed
>>
Don't press down on the rice. It denatures the proteins and ruins their primary structure, causing them to lose their function.

>>39550604

Just zero out your digital scale after placing a bowl on it and weigh the rice in grams man

You should measure the rice uncooked to be more accurate
>>
>>39555376

This.

Get a rice cooker and only cook the quantity you need.
>>
>>39555319
Your detector appears to be broken, i cook most of my meals for the week each weekend exclusively using grams for measuring like a sane person.
>>
>>39555373
You're retarded.
According to Gay-Lussac's law, if the pressure applied to the rice rises, then the temperature will increase. Consequently, the proteins lose their structure, robbing OP of gains.
Enjoy your no gains, fatty.

>>
>>39550604

cups are measured in GRAMS you stupid motherfucking nigger.

Measure the rice BEFORE cooking, as the finished weight varies greatly the more water you add.

Stop being a nigger.

Get a real education.

Jesus Christ guys a cup of rice is about 200 calories it doesn't vary enough to worry about that much you autistic measuring savants.
>>
>>39550604
keep your rice fluffy it will taste better
>>
>>39550604
They usually mean how much will fill a cup naturally and not to compact as much in there.

Like how people are absolutely convinced a table spoon = being stacked over the spoon into a little mound instead of it being cut off at the lip of the spoon.

Weighing chicken uncooked or cooked? Anyone?

Semi related question due to thread replies

When eating things with bones or scraps do i include those in the weight or is it implied you didn't eat it.

Like if I ate a mango would I weigh the whole mango and leave the seed in the measurement or take it out
>>
>>39556801
When I eat steaks or pork chops with the bone in I weigh it before I eat it and then after all that's left is the bone and the difference is what I count.
>>
>>39556801
>counting the bone

not gonna make it
