Hey everyone! I’m sure this question gets asked plenty of times, but I haven’t been able to find the answer after a search through the sub…
What do some of these ingredient measurements mean if I were to recreate this myself?
– 12 ounce chicken breasts. Does this mean two 6oz chicken breasts, or two 12oz?
– 1 unit Chicken stock concentrate. How much is a unit?
Is there a more consistent place to find this info?I’m noticing a lot of recipes on the website that raise similar questions, so any help is appreciated. Thank you!

For the chicken it should be two 6 ounce chicken cutlets, 12 ounces total.
For condiments it depends on the specific condiment but I just used chicken stock concentrate in a recipe and it was 0.34oz, which google says is roughly 2 tsp. That being said, I don’t know if all the chicken stock concentrate is the same size, as I think mayo comes in two different sizes, and I know I’ve gotten different sizes of coconut milk as well.
For the units of stock concentrate and I’m recreating a recipe, I will either use a bouillon cube (doesn’t hurt if it’s too much IMO) or use liquid stock in the amount of the water it is combined with in the recipe – for instance a half cup of chicken stock if it calls for a half cup of water and a unit of stock concentrate.
If it’s the same as the UK, the chicken stock concentrate (called paste here) is 10ml for 2 people
Looks like unit = each/item. In AU they just show “carrot” or “coconut milk”, whether the item is a logical each or must be a specific quantity. I weigh and note each ingredient in case I want to reproduce the recipe myself. In the case of coconut milk for 2 serves that’s 198g which is about 200ml.
