Choosing the right measuring jug, measuring cups or measuring spoons
While it all comes down to personal preference, choosing the right measuring jug, measuring cups or measuring spoons to add to your bakeware collection can involve a couple of different factors. Let’s explore some of the main ones:
-
Accuracy. In recipes that call for precision, it’s vital to use the right type of measuring cup set, as wet and dry ingredients involve different types of measurements.
-
Durability. Some designs and materials wear better than others so keep this in mind as well as frequency of use; if you bake often, invest in sturdy materials like stainless steel over silicone or BPA free plastic measuring cups.
-
Material. Consider whether you like your scoops, mixing bowls and measuring tools to match one another, as well as the practicality of the material like whether it’s dishwasher safe.
-
Stackability. Every bit of space in your kitchen has value so make the most of every inch! Check to see if the measuring cups or measuring spoon set you like is stackable.
-
Price. As always, price has its role to play. Weigh up value for money with how often you’ll use them.
Benefits of stainless steel measuring cups
The main advantage stainless steel measuring cups and stainless steel measuring spoons have over a non-stick silicone measuring cup, for example, is durability. This material won’t tarnish easily, is dishwasher safe and is very sturdy and robust, serving you well for years.
