We're currently doing some long-overdue site maintenance that will likely involve some outages, including a temporary shut-down of our commenting functions. We'll hopefully be done within a few days. In the meantime, thanks for your patience and concern!

Diónyi

Unit of Measurement

Diónyi (“DEE-OH-NYI”) means “size of a walnut” in Hungarian, and is used as a unit of measurement in some Hungarian cookbooks. One diónyi butter or fat is 20 grams, for example.

For related information, see our guide to Hungarian kitchen measurements.
