Measurements

           

Measurement Equipments I use at home for the blog recipes

• The Measuring Cups, Mug and Spoons pictured here are the one's I use when I cook and my blog recipes are based on these equipments only. 
• For all powder or semi solid ingredients I prefer using the Measuring Cups.
• For any fluid I use Measuring Mug. Always remember that Measuring Mug is for measuring fluids only. We will have cup measurements in the mug too but that is for fluids and not for dry ingredients.
• Butter is one ingredient available with measurement in the packing itself here in USA(Have added butter measurements below).
