How To Properly Measure Flour
The lightest texture of baked goods & the right consistency of recipe components depends so much on how the flour is measured, therefore technique is everything. Follow these pointers for success in your own kitchen.
The Technique
Use a spoon to lift & release the flour a few times from the container it is being stored in. Next, spoon the flour into the measuring cup being certain to use one specifically designed for dry ingredients. Swipe a level, flat dinner knife or small offset spatula over the cup to remove the excess. Use as directed in specific recipe applications.
