Thank you Vinny, now it's my turn ;-)
I use quite a few American recipes so bought a set of cup measures years ago to make life a little easier. This is written on them.
- 1 cup = 8 oz or 240ml.
- 1/2 cup = 4 oz or 120ml.
- 1/3 cup = 2.7oz or 80ml.
- 1/4 cup = 2 oz or 60ml.
I've only ever needed to use the first two, but these measures are quite handy to have in the kitchen drawer and can be bought in most cookshops very cheaply.
