Dutch Process Vs Unsweetened Cocoa
Dutch-Processed Cocoa:
1 cup = 92 grams
1 cup sifted = 75 grams
Natural Unsweetened or Nonalkalized Cocoa:
1 cup = 82 grams
Substitution for 3 tablespoons (18 grams) Dutch-processed cocoa: 3 tablespoons (18 grams) natural cocoa powder plus pinch (1/8 teaspoon) baking soda
Substitution for 3 tablespoons (18 grams) natural cocoa: 3 tablespoons (18 grams) Dutch-processed cocoa plus 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar or 1/8 teaspoon lemon juice or vinegar
Note: Due to the differences between natural and Dutch-processed cocoa powders, do not substitute one for the other in recipes.
Note: Do not confuse unsweetened natural and Dutch-processed cocoa powder with sweetened cocoa drink mixes. They are not the same thing.
