How nuch canola oil substitute for 2 sticks of butter?
Sometimes you can use oil for butter, but a lot of the time you can't. 2 sticks is a fair amount and oil is going to change the consistency of almost any finished product . If the butter is to be melted, tablespoon for tablespoon. 16 in two sticks means 16 of oil. If it is for cookies or some sort of dough, using oil is going to cause them to spread a lot more than with butter. I have used oil to make biscuits and I can live with them. Fine fresh, but they tend to be a bit dry if rewarmed.

Do big sugar granules have a big surface area?
Let's think about this a bit. Imagine a large sugar granule: for ease of illustration, we'll think of, say, a cube that's 1 cm on a side. (Yes, I know this is unreasonably large, but the argument works on smaller pieces as well.) Think of how much surface area it has, which is just the sum of the areas of the six square sides. Now think of cutting that granule into 1/2-cm cubes, one cut in each dimension, so where you had one cube, you now have eight. Notice that the surface area of all the 'outside' faces of those 1/2-cm cubes add up to the same surface area of the original 1-cm cube. There are 3 'outside' faces per 1/2-cm cube, and the other three are 'inside,' i.e., before cutting, they were attached to each other, so there were no faces there. With this kind of argument, it's very easy to see that a teaspoon of smaller granules has much more surface area than a teaspoon of large granules. (There's another, usually less important, effect at work here too. Think of a teaspoon of dice—maybe you'll get one die in the spoon. Now think of a teaspoon of fine sand. The sand packs more efficiently, so you don't have as much air space, so small granules are denser than large ones—you can pack more weight (a physicist would say 'mass') into the same volume.) If you're comparing the individual granules, certainly a big one has more area than a small one, but now you're comparing, say, 1 tsp large granules with 1/8 tsp small granules (i.e., the same number of granules in each case, but the smaller ones are...well...smaller). Hope that helps.
What is the customary markup of baked goods?
If you're talking about just the cost of the ingredients then the cost of the finished product is usually anywhere between 3 and 5 times the cost of the ingredients used to make said product. The labor involved to make a particular item would determine just what the markup would be. You have to first determine the cost of your ingredients and then you have to figure out how many labor hours it would take to make that particular item and how much you would have to pay your workers. Then of course there's things like electricity and other utilities, rent, insurance, equipment, etc. Of course you wouldn't expect one item to pay for all that but it does need to pay a percentage of it. Then you also have to take into account that you may not sell everything you make. If you sell 90% of what you make then you're doing pretty good.
How long does it take to cook a three pound chicken in a conventional oven at 350 degrees?
From 1 to 1.5 hours. Cook the chicken uncovered until the breast temperature is 165 to 170 degrees internally and the thighs to 180 degrees. Not all ovens cook evenly but the rule of thumb is 20 to 30 minutes per pound, under optimal circumstances. Do not put the chicken into the oven until it preheats. If you do, you may overcook the bottom side. A good rule of thumb is to cook breast side up for the first half of the cooking time, then rotate breast side down for the remaining time (to retain moisture) and then breast side up on BROIL until skin is cooked to the desired crispness.
How long do i cook a dish 350 degrees when the recipe states to cook for 1 hour 425 degrees?
The short answer is do it for 1 hour 15 mins.
The long answer is that it depends on
If it is a meat joint, it depends on the cut, but typically hotter will cook it quicker but cooler will cook more slowly but leave meat tenderer. These are generalisms though and a lot will depend on what you are cooking. To illustrate, I have seen a recipe where a beef joint is slow-roasted for 24 hours at 160 degrees. the same joint could be done at 300 for 3 hours or 400 for 2.5 hours. All would produce cooked meat but all wouldvary in taste and texture.
How long does it take to bake chicken on a pizza stone?
Cooking time for chicken on a pizza stone depends on the thickness of the chicken and the temperature of the oven.
Make sure the stone is thoroughly preheated before putting the chicken on it. The stone should be added to a cold oven and allowed to preheat slowly as the oven rises in temperature. Allow at least 45 minutes to preheat the stone and longer for thick stones.
Cooking on a stone is done at very high oven temperatures, so is only suitable for thinner cuts of chicken meat, to ensure they cook completely in the short time they can be at this high temperature without drying out. Any chicken over about 2cm thick is not suitable for this method.

How many tablespoons are in an ounce of butter?
A tablespoon is equivalent to 0.5 liquid ounces so there are 2 tablespoons in 1 ounce. There are two different ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the tablespoon to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce." A tablespoon measures volume not weight. In order to convert tablespoons or teaspoons to ounces or back, You need to know what is being measured. A spoon of lettuce will weigh different than a spoon of gold in solid ounces.
What is the difference between butter and shorten?
Shortening is a semisolid fat made from either vegetable fat or animal fat. It is made of 100$ fat rather than 80$ fat such as butter. It also has a higher smoking point than butter. It creates a more "crumbly" texture in baked goods.
A common brand of shortening is Crisco, which is made from a blend of cottonseed and soybean oils. It became popular due to fat that it was cheaper and because it isn't made from dairy, it has a long shelf life.
