For example, if you try to convert a British or Australian recipe to metric using these instructions, it may flop. For the sake of keeping things simple, I have slightly rounded off the measurements stated below. All conversions should be sufficiently accurate for all recipes. For exact conversions, see the Appendices. Liquids (and Herbs and Spices) - tekutina,koreni Liquids can be converted to liters or milliliters with the following table.
