Have you ever been in the middle of cooking and discovered that you can’t find the right measuring cup? Or maybe you’ve found a great recipe, but it list ingredients in pounds or ounces, but you have no way to measure them out? Well, you can relax, because I’ve stumbled across a solution! The folks over at TipNut.com have written a great post with some great “hacks” to help you out in these kinds of situations. For example:
- 1 pound all-purpose flour = 4 cups
- 1 cup egg whites = 7 to 10 medium eggs
- 1 pint strawberries = 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1 pound butter = 2 cups
- 1 pound granulated sugar = 2 to 2 1/4 cups
You can check out the post for the full list here. Or, even better, print out their cheat sheet and keep it in the kitchen for quick reference.
