Thread: Measuring Rice (Cup Size)

why not just use a measuring cup itself?

Lol cause I don't have one, I never knew they had measuring cups (I'm 18, and an f'in retard when it comes to cooking lol).

You can buy one at the grocery store.

haha, wow thanks you just saved me a drive and a half. was about to go driving around town looking for "cuisnary stores/schools" hahaha

And just to be clear on something. So if I use the scoop to measure oatmeal, then say I use it to measure cell-tech powder. That same scoop can result in 30g's of oatmeal, but 50g's of cell-tech powder, correct?

or Walmart.....They'll be by the baking pans and bowls. Or the isle with spatulas and stuff.

Right... people keep trying to act like grams are volume. Cup, tsp, milliliter, etc... all VOLUME. Grams... weight.

go buy a digital scale... it will solve all of your problems. You wanna go by weight, not volume, because different foods have different volume, for example a cup of beans will have alot of empty space, between the beans and weigh lets say 100g, then a cup of oats will have much less space inbetween because they are smaller and weigh say 200g.... big differences there, thats why i just use scales. You can find a good scale at a department store like walmart or something.

Walmart has those scales too. LOL

When did it become so difficult to measure rice that we need a thread on it ?
