![]() ![]() The correct way is still with scooping with another spoon into the tablespoon or teaspoon. HOW TO MEASURE USING TABLESPOON OR TEASPOONS I feel that it’s more convenient and most people don’t sift their flour anyway. All the measurements I provided here are without sifting. None of my recipes here will ask you to sift the flour/starches (not that I can recall). Wow! it may not seems like a lot, but all this adds up in baking or when you make kue/kuih or anything that requires precision. I experimented with that and the difference can be between 10-20 grams difference each time. WHAT IF I SCOOP THE FLOUR/STARCH DIRECTLY FROM THE CONTAINER/BAG USING MEASURING CUP Use a knife with the straight edge to level it off Spoon the flour into the measuring cup using another spoon and give it a little shake and continue until the flour/starch overflowing the cup Use a spoon/scoop to spoon the flour into a measuring cup Flour that has been sitting inside a container or bag will pack overtime What is the purpose of fluffing the flour? by fluffing the flour, we avoid overpacking. ![]() If you use measuring cups with spout and slightly slanted edge, the result will differ because that is meant of liquid measurementīefore you scoop the flour out from the container or bag, use a spoon or scoop the fluff and stir the flour a little bit inside the container or bag. Measuring cups for dry ingredients have a smooth level top. So we need to make sure we do it correctlyġ. Mine can measure milk and water (their density is different) HOW TO MEASURE FLOUR AND STARCH PROPERLYįlour measurement with cups has the biggest variables. Whether the recipe is in grams, pound, oz, etc, you can easily convert this with a digital kitchen scale. Unlike cups or tablespoons, sometimes I might get 10 grams over or 15 grams under because of the way I scoop If the recipe calls for 100 grams I know I’m going to get 100 grams. With a kitchen scale, I can weight ingredients straight in the bowl I’m going to use, hence fewer things to wash With cups and tablespoons, you have more things to wash. WHY YOU SHOULD GET A DIGITAL KITCHEN SCALE It depends on who scoop the flour, how you scoop it, etc, etc. At the same time, it is highly inaccurate. I get it, it’s easy, it’s convenient and most people don’t own a digital kitchen scale. ![]()
