You can buy glass cups for measuring liquids in 1-, 2-, 4- and 8-cup sizes. To get an accurate reading, place the measuring cup on a flat surface and read the measurement at eye level. Before measuring sticky liquids, such as honey, molasses and corn syrup, wipe the cup lightly with oil or lightly spray with cooking spray so it’s easier to remove the liquid. Do not use to measure dry ingredients.
