How to Measure Liquid Ingredients
I'm here in the kitchen at Colorado State University and I'm going to show you how
to measure liquid ingredients. To measure liquid ingredients, your basic equipment includes
a liquid measuring cup which has the lines or measurement marks on it. It's also nice
because it has a handle and a spout which makes it easy to pour. And also measuring
spoons and they have the various sizes depending on what the recipe calls for. So I'm going
to show you how to measure oil. And, leaving your measuring cup on the counter, you want
to pour slowly and I'm going to do a half cup. And I'm looking at the half cup line,
and I want to make sure I get down here and look at the line and I want my oil will be
right in line with that line. So that would be, I would be able to deliver half a cup.
So that's a half cup of oil measured using the liquid measuring cup. If you're doing
something like vanilla, that's when we use our teaspoons or our measuring spoons and
again it's nice to measure it over something just in case you uh get more than you want
and that's a teaspoon, you just want to fill that up and that would be liquid measuring
of vanilla and oil. And, it's as simple as that.
