The measuring spoons allow you to cook accurately without the need for scales or other more complex instruments. If you had not traveled the easiest thing would have been to buy them online, now in Spain you can find them in the homeware section of many stores and they do not entail any large outlay. I had to get a set of measuring cups and spoons, at that time they still could not be found easily in Spain, at least in my area, (surely in specialized stores in large capitals yes), so I waited for my next trip to the US and I bought them, both there and in England are the most common. Soon I realized that all that did not make sense and I started to investigate, and I quickly realized that it was a measurement system that was used in baking and many other recipes throughout the Anglo-Saxon world, I saw how comfortable I was and I knew I could not continue cooking without them. " spoonful ", but did not know if it is a soup, dessert, or coffee. "cup", but as I told you before, I did not pay attention to what kind of cup, I read "tablespoon "And I thought. I had been reading American cooking blogs and websites for a long time, including some English ones, at first, every time I read "cup", I thought. In Spain we work by weighing the ingredients, especially in baking, go over to the measuring spoons, guaranteed comfort. I wrote down the amounts of everything I was using to prepare each dish, I started creating my recipe file, and one fine day, by chance I discovered the Anglo-Saxon measures. In this I am self-taught, so it took me a while.Īt first I got a measuring cup and a scale, these two objects allowed me to measure, by volume and weight respectively, and they supposed without a doubt a great improvement. You can imagine how good everything went, but little by little I was learning to organize myself and prepare in advance the ingredients I needed for a specific recipe. To begin with, I want to tell you that when I started cooking, being a great inexperienced, I used to prepare the recipes by eye, or with improvised homemade measures, like "a glass" or "a cup", leaving in the background what type of glass or what kind of mug. The spoons and cups are the reference measurements in England and the United States. Undoubtedly the time has come to clarify what kind of measures I usually use in the kitchen, many readers of the blog have asked me about it and you deserve an explanation.
