What changes the calories
- Total calories stay the same when the flour is mixed with water, but the finished dough or mochi weighs more, so it has fewer calories per gram than the dry flour.
- Fillings and coatings such as sweet bean paste, sesame paste, peanuts or sugar can add a lot of calories on top of the flour itself.
- Frying glutinous rice balls or cakes adds the calories of the oil they absorb, while boiling or steaming adds none.
- Scooping flour with a cup can pack it more or less tightly, so the real amount in a cup often differs from the standard weight.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh the dry flour before cooking and log that amount, then divide by the number of pieces or portions you make.
- Log fillings, syrups, sugar and frying oil as separate items so they are not missed.
- If you make a recipe often, save it as a custom recipe in BerryFit so each serving is logged the same way every time.
