Why Tablespoons and Grams Are Different
When cooking or baking, it's essential to know the difference between volume and weight. Tablespoons measure volume (how much space an ingredient takes up), while grams measure weight (how heavy it is).
Because different ingredients have different densities, one tablespoon of butter will weigh more than one tablespoon of flour. That's why you can't use a single conversion factor for everything.
For the most precise results in baking, a kitchen scale is always recommended over measuring spoons or cups.
