Measuring Cup for Liquid Ingredients Measuring Cup for Dry Ingredients Measuring Spoon

A vessel used specifically for measuring Dry measuring cups used for measuring solid used to measure very small quantities of
liquids. Liquid is poured into the cup up to (dry) ingredients like flour, sugar, oats, or ingredients by volume quickly and

How to measure Liquid Ingredients

It is important to follow the correct technique for measuring and weighing. Measuring cups, like this one, are
used to measure liquids like water, milk, and oil. It is important to use the correct measuring cup when following
a recipe.

When measuring liquid place the cup on a level or flat

surface and read the measurement at eye level.

Measuring Dry Ingredients

Procedure:
1. Fill measuring cup until it overflows Spoon flour or other light, powdery dry
ingredient into your measuring cup until it domes up over the top. (Don’t scoop with the
cup and shake off the excess, because this will cause the ingredient to become slightly
packed, and and you’ll end up with more than the recipe calls for.)

2. Level it off with the back of a knife or spatula Run the flat edge of a knife over the top of the measuring cup to level
it off. This will ensure that you’ve measured the exact amount the recipe calls for.

What Does Sifting Flour Do?

Sifting is a process that breaks up any lumps in the flour and aerates it at the same time by pushing it through a gadget
that is essentially a cup with a fine strainer at one end. Flour should NEVER be packed but should be SPOONED
into the measuring cup.
 ✓ Fill measuring spoon.
To measure light and fluffy ingredients, put the ingredient into the measuring
spoon with another spoon or scoop, until it domes up over the top of the
measuring spoon. (Tip: For salt, granulated sugar, or other heavy ingredients, it’s
okay to dip your measuring spoon, scooping out enough
so that the spoon is overflowing.)

Level it off with the back of a knife. Run the flat edge of a knife over the
top of the measuring spoon to level it off. Scoop the brown sugar using a
spoon into your measuring cup. Then, press down on the pile of brown sugar
until it is tight and compact.

NOTE: Brown Sugar and Shortening Should be packed into the measuring Cup

Now that you have already learned about the proper way of measuring dry and liquid ingredients, why do you think the
success in the kitchen depends on properly and accurately measuring of ingredients? (5PTS) ___________________

Direction: Write T if the statement is correct, or F if it is incorrect and underline the word that makes the statement
wrong.
1. Level a measuring spoon with straight edge of a knife to measure small amounts of salt, pepper, leavening agents
2. Shake the dry measuring cup to level off ingredients.
3. Liquids should be poured into cup in desired level.
4. When measuring liquid ingredients, cup should be stand on rough surface.
5. Sift sugar and flour to take out lumps
6. Liquid measuring cup can be used to measure flour and other solid ingredients
7. Ingredients which measure by volume and by weight do not demand standardized measuring tools and equipment.
8. Brown sugar should always be packed to press out the pockets of air that get trapped among the sticky sugar granules.
