This looks very interesting and Cardamom is a recent new love of mine as long as I don’t accidentally use too much.

Barbara – You ask an excellent question since baking by weight is far more accurate than by volume. But I have to admit, I generally use volume.

When I say 1 cup of flour, I mean that I put my measuring cup into the flour, then tapped it against the side of the container to remove any excess (i.e. flour was mounded on top, then I tapped the cup until the flour was level.) However, next time I make something with flour I’ll weigh each cup and let you know what the scale says.

I’m sure you’ve already answered this question somewhere else, but I’m new to your blog (and I love it!)… how do you measure your flour? Do you have an equivalent by weight? And thanks for all the great postings.

This looks delicious! Now I know what to do with the pears sitting on my counter…
