Tips for weighing and logging

Drain excess cooking water when comparing the lentil weight with this reference.

To calculate manually, multiply your portion weight in grams by 116 and divide by 100. For example, 150 g provides approximately 174 kcal.

When logging a photo, check the food, cooking method and estimated portion before saving. A photograph cannot reliably show hidden oil or exact weight.
