HOW TO MEASURE LIQUIDS

You need liquid measuring cups in order to measure liquids properly. They come in several different sizes and are useful for melting chocolate and butter in the microwave as well as measuring.

Pour liquid into the cup, then bend down so the mark at the amount you need is at eye level. The liquid should come just to the mark for the proper amount. For tablespoons and teaspoons, use ordinary measuring spoons for liquids too.
