FAQ
- Why is grams-to-cups approximate for Seitan?
- Because density is heterogeneous — a cup's contents drift with packing. The table uses a loose, unpacked measure, so real cups may read slightly smaller.
- When should I abandon cups and weigh Seitan?
- When the recipe specifies grams, or when gram-level accuracy matters for structure, rise, or seasoning balance.
