i was in the mood for popovers last weekend and have not made them in
a few years. I dug into Cooks Illustrated and grabbed a recipe, which
looked to be a basic one (butter, eggs, milk, flour, salt). I used
this ingredient list:

2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour (5 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter , melted
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

They turned out ok tastewise but they really did not pop much at all.
I thought maybe i hadn't heated the popover pan enough or let the
mixture rest long enough so i tried again. Same result.

This weekend, my scale was changed to grams (for whatever reason).
Off the top of my head, i used 125g for 1cup of flour and it turned
out perfect. i double check online for 1cup of flour and get 125g/
4.41 ounces. Ugh! I need to make sure i double check those weight
measurements and/or make sure i remember them well enough in the
future.
