    Baking Techniques - Proper Measuring

    Before measuring sticky ingredients, such as honey, molasses, corn syrup or ice cream topping, lightly coat the inside of the measuring cup with non-stick cooking spray. The sticky liquid will slide right out of the cup with minimal scraping.
    • Before measuring sticky ingredients, such as honey, molasses, corn syrup or ice cream topping, lightly coat the inside of the measuring cup with non-stick cooking spray. The sticky liquid will slide right out of the cup with minimal scraping.
    • Accurate measuring of ingredients is important for successful baking. Use a glass of plastic measuring cup with a pour spout to measure all liquid ingredients such as milk, water, juice or oil. With measuring cup on level surface, bend down so your eye is even with the correct measuring line. Slowly fill the cup to the correct line.
    • Use plastic or metal graduated measuring cups to measure dry or solid ingredient such as sugar, cereal, chopped nuts or shredded cheese. Use the right size measuring cup for amount specified in recipe. For example, for ½ cup sugar, use a ½-cup measuring cup. Fill cup to the top. Level off with edge of knife or spatula.
