    184 grams is a touch high for “a cup of flour”, but I’m not gonna check your math, and the comic probably wanted to use “close enough” round-ish numbers. The weight of a cup of flour is usually somewhere between 120g and 145g, going by the conversions used by major baking recipe publishers like King Arthur, Cooks Illustrated, Washington Post, New York Times, etc.

      I fear their apartment is at -50°C and this is a cry for help.

      At least I am relieved to know that even acclaimed authors native to the cup-measurement system don’t know what “a cup of flour is”.

      I’ll be off baking my pannenkoek with 150g of flour then.
