Measuring Ingredients

Careful and correct measurement of all ingredients is essential for recipe success. Australian Standard Metric cup and spoon measures are used in all recipes in the book. All cup and spoon measurements should be level.

•One metric tablespoon is equal to 20mls.

•One metric teaspoon is equal to 5mls.

•One liquid cup measurement is equal to 250mls.

The following are some hints on measuring ingredients.

Wet Ingredients

Place the measuring jug on a level surface and check the measurement at eye level.

Dry ingredients

Use a standard metric measuring cup and spoon to measure out dry ingredients. After filling, level off cup or spoon with a knife. You may like to tap the cup or spoon lightly on the kitchen benchtop before levelling. If your dry ingredients has any lumps, be sure to remove them or break them up, sifting ingredients prior to mixing will help.

Raising Agents

Care is essential for best results. Check for and crush any lumps, particularly in bicarbonate of soda, before measuring.

Cheese and Breadcrumbs

Pack grated cheese and soft breadcrumbs into the cup pressing lightly to obtain best results.

Fats and Oils

The simplest method to measure butters, margarines and shorting is to cut or spoon the required amount from the block or container and then weigh it using metric scales.
