Weight also opens up question. Is that pre or post preparing? Like removing parts or skins and so on?

That’s interesting. I’ve never once thought of weighing (or measuring by volume) something before chopping it up. Maybe I’m just not thinking of the right ingredient?

For me, weight solves one of the biggest issues which is “large potato” or “large onion”, WTF is “large”?
