How to measure dry liquid ingredients vs

Find out why it is important to have two types of cups to measure.


No matter how many times I marry Kondo my kitchen, I will never get rid of a kitchen tool: myLiquid measuring sections. They are bulky and take a lot more space than the nesting of cups to be measured, but they are essential to specify liquid measurements. This is because the dry and liquid ingredients are measured differently-liquids by fluid ounces, which measure the volume and the dry ingredients per ounce, which measure the weight.

How to measure dry ingredients

In a perfect world, you would use a ladder to measure dry ingredients, but theseStack dry mugs with handles that you certainly have in your kitchen will do good. You can measure a precise amount by filling the cup (or 1/3 cup or 1/4 cup, etc.) with ingredient type flour and level it with a knife or other flat tool.

Flour andWhite sugar should not be pressed or packaged, but recipes usually call an "packaged cup" of things like brown sugar. This means pushing the sugar closetwise the measuring tool with the ingredient and no air.

There is no way to know exactly how many dry ounces are in a cup, because it varies according to weight consumption, however much in the measurement of the cup you use or use a kitchen balance to be more accurate (desirable for cooking).

If you have tried to measure the flour in volume, you can really spoil a batch of cookies-1 cup completely worn flour weighs 4.5 ounces rather than 8 ounces. (There are 8 ounces fluids in 1 cup by volume for liquids.)

How to measure liquid ingredients

The liquid measurement ingredients are really simple: have separate measuring cups with liquid measurements. There are 8 ounces of liquid (fluid ounces) in a cup, so that two cups are 16 ounces (AKA 1 pint), four cups are 32 oz. (AKA 1 quarter), and so on. They are measured in cups with glass or plastic liquid with a handle and can be easily paid from its beak.
