Why you need them

Quality measuring cups may not seem too important a part of cooking . . . until recipes don’t turn out quite right because of inaccurate measuring.

A quality set of measuring cups is essential for good results in baking and cooking. I highly recommend stainless steel (for dry ingredients) and glass (for liquids) rather than plastic. The fact that they hold up longer and are easier to use more than justifies the very little extra they cost.

Liquid and dry measuring cups have each been designed to accurately measure their respective ingredients. Measuring cups for dry ingredients are made to fill to the brim with the dry ingredient and scrape to level off without packing.

Where to find them

This set of stainless-steel measuring cups is perfect for my dry ingredients.

And these glass measuring cup are perfect for liquid ingredients.
