The measures given here are for use with Seasoned with Love and 
some of the metric equivalents have been rounded up, e.g., the correct 
measurement for a teaspoon would be 4.93 milliliters which is 
very difficult to measure. 5 milliliters is easy to measure and 
this is the basis for the following conversions.
