The proper way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level with the
back of a butter knife.
Now, I’m a country cook & just shove my measuring cup in my flour & scoop up
what I need. Depending on what I’m cooking depends on if I level the flour.

I don't know if there is such thing as absolute "proper" in this case.
People do what works best for them, and whatever helps in completing the
task is considered the proper way. I would rather place the measuring cup
into the bag or canister of flour, and fill it by either using the cup as a

Hi,
I keep an extra set of measuring cups in my flour, granulated sugar and
brown sugar containers. Example, I keep a 1 cup measure in the flour
container, a one half cup in the granulated sugar one and a one fourth cup
in the brown sugar one.
I also try to measure liquids over a bowl so I can po

Hi Brennen, from Ron Kolesar.
I'm curious to know the following.
Are the measuring cups made out of heavy hard plastic, or made out of
stainless steel?
I'm thinking of picking up a set of the measuring cups and spoons for
myself.
So, many thanks.

Interesting. I was told the proper way to measure flour was to scoop the
flour into the cup, not to dip the cup into the flour. Anyone know?

Yes they need to come out with a law that the appliances and technology need
to be accessible.
Microwaves are not expensive now.

Well, for my use at the time, I was quite happy with the

The disappointing thing about the Temo microwave was that the power level
was not as great and it takes longer to heat things, etc. But I've had mine
for several years now.
