FAHRENHEIT,and GALLOON So
based on the activity,do you
have any idea on what is our -UNITS OF
lesson for today? MEASUREMENTS USED
IN COOKING maam

Okay verygood ! Now that we

know our lesson today is all
about units of measurement
that we’re going to use in the
ingredients in cooking, it's time
to dive right in and explore
these culinary essentials. As we
begin, remember that precision
in cooking is like the magic
wand that transforms recipes
into delicious masterpieces. So,
let's unlock the secrets of these
culinary measurements and
calculations and Remember, in
the kitchen, understanding the
language of cooking is just as
important as mastering the
recipes themselves

B. ANALYSIS Okay, class, let's dive deeper

into the world of cooking
measurements. We'll discuss
the significance of each unit.

First up, the TEASPOON.

Can anyone tell me what role
a teaspoon plays in cooking? -(students will raise their
hands)
-Yes Kurt?
-Maam It's for smaller
amounts of ingredients, like
spices or baking soda.

(A teaspoon is a small unit

used to measure small
amounts of ingredients,
especially spices, flavorings,
or baking powder. It's known
 REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
CAGAYAN STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
for its versatility in
accurately measuring
ingredients that require
precision)

-Perfect! Youre right

Now, let's talk about
TABLESPOON. How does a
tablespoon differ from a
teaspoon, and where do we
commonly see tablespoons (students will raise their
used? hands)

-Yes John? -Maam Tablespoons are

larger, and I think they're
used for things like oil or
sugar in recipes.

(A tablespoon is larger than a

teaspoon and is often used
for measuring larger
quantities of ingredients,
such as cooking oils, sugars,
or other liquid substances. It
provides a more substantial
and standardized
measurement for common
cooking needs.)

-Excellent! Moving on, why

do you think it's crucial to
understand the difference -(students will raise their
between Fahrenheit and hands)
Celsius when you're
cooking?

-Yes regine?

-Maam Different recipes use

different temperature scales,
so knowing how to convert
helps you follow the recipe
accurately.

(Celsius and Fahrenheit are

two different temperature
scales with different
reference points for the
freezing and boiling points of
 REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
CAGAYAN STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
water. The Celsius scale is
more commonly used
globally, while Fahrenheit is
predominantly used in the
United States.)

-Great insight! Now, let's

jump to a scenario. When (students will raise their
might you choose to use a hands)
quart instead of an ounce in a
recipe?

-Yes jester? -Maam I think if you're

dealing with liquids, like
making soup, you might use
quarts. But for smaller
amounts, like flavor extracts,
you'd use ounces.

(A fluid ounce measures the

volume of liquid ingredients.
It's commonly used in recipes
for beverages, dressings, or
any liquid component where
accuracy in measurement is
essential for the recipe's
success.)

-Exactly! Now, thinking

about gallons and quarts,
how does knowing the -- (students will raise their
difference impact meal hands)
preparation, especially when
dealing with liquids?

-yes Mark? -Maam, Well, if a recipe asks

for a gallon of water, and you
use a quart, you might end up
with a very concentrated
flavor or a dry dish.
(Quart (qt):
Explanation: A quart is a
larger volume measurement,
equal to four cups or two
pints. It's frequently used in
cooking for larger quantities
of liquid ingredients, like
soups, stews, or sauces.
Gallon (gal):
 REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
CAGAYAN STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
The gallon is a substantial
liquid measurement, equal to
four quarts or sixteen cups.
It's typically used for large-
scale cooking or when
dealing with bulk liquids,
such as making stocks or
brines.)

-Perfect examples, everyone!

It's clear that each unit has its
role in creating delicious
dishes.

C. ABSTRACTION Okay, class, imagine you're

in the kitchen, and you want
to make your favorite pasta
dish. Why do you think it's
important to measure the -- (students will raise their
ingredients? hands)

-Yes Ms. Baccay?

-Maam, So it tastes the same

every time?
-Oh yes what’s a great
answer my dear. Exactly!
CONSISTENCY is the key.
( Ensuring the same taste
every time.)

Now, let's say you're making

a sauce. Why would precise
measurements matter for the
-- (students will raise their
flavor?
hands)

-Yes, Mr. Lay.

-Maam If I put too much salt

or not enough herbs, it won't
- Good point! It's like taste right
creating a perfect harmony of
FlavorBalance: Achieving the
 REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
CAGAYAN STATE UNIVERSITY

right taste balance

Now, think about baking a

cake. Why is it important to
measure ingredients, - (students will raise their
especially in baking? hands)

-Yes abie
Well Maam, if I don't
measure the flour or baking
powder right, the cake might
not rise, or it could be too
dense.

Spot on! Precision in

measurements is crucial
for the texture and
structure of baked goods.

And what about time

efficiency? How does
accurate measuring help
there? - (students will raise their
hands)
-Yes Sheila?

-Maam It saves time

because I don't have to fix
mistakes or redo things.
You got it! Being precise
from the start makes the
whole cooking process
smoother. And one last
thing, why do you think chefs
stick to recipes and measure
everything exactly? - (students will raise their
hands)
Yes Maria?
Maam So the dish turns
out the way it's supposed
to be, like the chef
intended.

Perfect! Following a
 REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES
CAGAYAN STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION

recipe closely with the

right measurements
ensures you're honoring
the chef's vision for the
dish. Great job!
1. Consistency:
Ensuring the same
taste every time.
2. Flavor Balance:
Achieving the right
taste balance.
3. Texture and
Structure: Crucial
for baking textures.
4. Recipe Integrity:
Staying true to the
chef's intent.
5. Time Efficiency:
Streamlining the
cooking process.
6. Cost Efficiency:
Preventing
ingredient wastage.

Understanding precise
measurements in cooking is the
key to culinary success.
Consistency, flavor balance, and
texture hinge on accurate
measurements. Treat each
measurement as a brushstroke
in your culinary art. Follow
recipes with respect, and you'll
not only create delicious dishes
but develop your own unique
style. Precision in measurements
is your passport to becoming a
true culinary artist. Happy
cooking!
