Ingredient Measurements

Getting quantities right is one of the easiest ways to improve consistent results.

Things to remember

  1. Use a kitchen scale for flour and sugar when possible.
  2. Check whether measurements are by weight or volume.
  3. Keep teaspoons, tablespoons and oven temperatures consistent.

Put this into practice

Try these habits when following a home recipe. Pay close attention to what your ingredients look and feel like, and use the recipe’s timing as a guide rather than the only measure of success.
