I didn't know the conversion for tbsp to cups, that's super helpful!
Google assistant has gotten worse and worse but "Hey Google, how many tablespoons are in x" is pretty helpful
Or use DuckDuckGo
Or use the terminal app
qalc
, which converts and calculates with everything!Does that plug into assistant speakers?
I'm not a massive fan of it but hands free cooking questions are nice. I use DDG for my browser search
I'm sure some open hardware hacker could get DuckDuckGo or
qalc
to work through their home-soldered voice-controlled assistant.But other than that, no. For what it's worth, I spend 2 to 3 seconds for each conversion through the terminal when preparing a recipe, or about 15 seconds unlocking my phone and looking it up in DDG on the spot
