FAQ
- Is the teaspoon value for drained Red lentils, cooked?
- Yes. Drained, room-temperature pieces; un-drained adds cooking liquid that distorts the weight and volume.
- Can I use the Red lentils, cooked cooking liquid as part of the measurement?
- Only if the recipe asks for it (e.g. aquafaba). Otherwise, drain thoroughly: cooking liquid adds variable weight and distorts the reading.
