      This book is a compilation of information that I have accumulated over the years. I started it for my family in answer to various questions about what to use when a recipe calls for an ingredient you don’t have. I’ve left lots of space for you to add other information you’ve found helpful.

      P.S. Because this book contains information from so many sources, there may be duplications and a few contradictions that I missed. Most conversions are approximate. Also, some sizes have changed because some of my sources were quite old. Even though I tried to find current figures, I was not always able to do so.
