I fear this is a hopeless quest. Tablespoons are a liquid measure anyway, see da wiki da pedia.

40 gm = 1.41 oz

Is there any hope this might help? .....?

After messing about in my laboratory kitchen, I have reached the conclusion that you need approximately

6 level tbsps of flour (to equal 40 gm)

but the butter is beyond me. Roughly 1 and a half ounces...

And these is cheese-eating surrender monkey tablespoons.

Oh Uncle afew, please leave nerdy questions to the TRULY NERDY.  We get off on this shit!

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.

According to this site, my 6 level tbsps seems right for the flour (6.4 US tbsps with US all-purpose flour, you can't say better than that).

Butter is between 2 and 3 tbsps.

I'd be tempted to do 7 level tbsps flour to 3 level tbsps butter.
