Overview: Quantity

The quantity for a recipe ingredient is a required field i.e. it cannot be left empty.

Enter the quantity required based on the ingredient measure that you selected for that ingredient (refer to below examples and restrictions).

Example: using flour as an example there are four different measures that you can select from:
Flour (gms): for quantity you would enter the number of gms required e.g. 15
Flour (teaspoon): for quantity you would enter the number of teaspoons required e.g. 2
Flour (tablespoon): for quantity you would enter the number of tablespoons required e.g. 3
Flour (cup): for quantity you would enter the number of cups required e.g. 1.5

The only exception to the above is where ingredients are labelled (ea), (packet), (bunch) etc. For these type of ingredients the quantity ordered would be based on that labelling.

Warning: quantity can only be entered in whole numbers or as a decimal e.g.
1/4 of a cup you would enter .25
1/3 of a cup you would enter .33
1/2 of a cup you would enter .5
2/3 of a cup you would enter .66
1 cup you would enter 1
1 1/3 cups you would enter 1.33
