Measuring Wet and Dry Ingredients | Basic Kitchen Skills

Taking your recipes to the next level requires accurately measuring wet and dry ingredients, especially for baking. The tools and procedures for measuring dry ingredients are completely different from those for measuring wet (liquid) ingredients.

Though they both have the same name, there is a difference between ounces, which measures weight, and fluid ounces, which measures volume. 8 fluid ounces is a cup, but 8 fluid ounces volume doesn’t weigh 8 ounces in weight. A pound of flour has more volume than a pound of sugar. This is why modern recipes are moving toward weighing ingredients on a scale. Weighing ingredients always makes it a snap to convert recipes from metric grams to ounces or from ounces to grams.
