There’s nothing worse than pulling out all of the ingredients for your favourite recipe only to realise that your measuring cup is nowhere to be seen.
These useful charts will help you convert liquids from cups to mls so you can make whatever recipe you like!
Most Australian recipes use mls or cups as measures but you also may find in American recipes ounces (oz) used to measure liquids.
What equipment can you use to measure liquid ingredients?
For liquid ingredients, you can use a measuring cup or jug that you can easily pour the liquid into.
Measuring cups and spoons are handy for dry ingredients so you can level off the ingredient and ensure you get the correct amount.
You can pick up measuring cups or spoons that use the Australian standard in most grocery stores, or online. If you are ordering online from an overseas retailer, make sure to check it is using Australian standard measurements.
