What is a Kitchen Scale?
A kitchen scale allows you to measure dry, liquid, or chopped ingredients in weight, rather than volume, for very accurate recipes. Different kinds of kitchen scales will range in their capacity, precision, display, size, platform, and units of measurement. They can be convenient and helpful tools for chefs, amateur cooks, and crafters alike. Some people use a kitchen scale to keep track of elements of their diet, such as calculating how much sugar or carbohydrates are in a certain portion of orange slices or pasta.
