TIP TUESDAY: CORRECT MEASURING TOOLS

One of the most important things I’ve learned in my cooking journey is that using the correct measuring tool can make or break a recipe. 🎯 Trust me, I’ve been there—wondering why my cake didn’t rise or why my sauce was too runny. Turns out, I wasn’t using the right tools for the job!

Liquid ingredients like water, oil, or honey need a liquid measuring cup. 🥛 These cups are usually see-through with measurements marked on the side. Pro tip: make sure to measure at eye level to get the most accurate amount.

For dry ingredients like flour or sugar, a dry measuring cup is your best friend. 🍚 These usually come in sets with different sizes, and the key here is to fill the cup and then level it off with a flat edge, like a knife.

And guess what? Measuring spoons work for both liquid and dry ingredients! 🥄 The small difference in volume doesn’t affect your final dish, so feel free to use them interchangeably for those smaller amounts.

So next time you’re whipping up something delicious, remember: the right tool makes all the difference! 🍰🍲
