It works well with cookie dough, rice mixtures, vegetable blends, and other foods that need to be divided into equal portions. Using the same amount each time also makes recipes easier to manage and reduces the guesswork involved in preparing large batches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Uniform portions aren&#8217;t only about appearance\u2014they can also improve cooking results.
