Glass Measuring Cups - Antique and Vintage Style

Glass Measuring Cups are a wonderful and unique addition to any cooking collection. First invented in 1879, measuring cups were created for standardization of measurements in cooking and baking. Prior to this most recipes measured quantities in “lumps†or “fistsâ€. By changing the method of measuring quantities of wet and dry ingredients, chefs could create meals that tasted the same every time they were prepared.

Glass measuring cups are available in a wide variety of sizes, designs, and colors and may also be made from plastic or metal. Measuring cups are used in cooking to measure the volume of a liquid or dry ingredient. In the United States most measuring cups base the measurements on portions of one cup. Measuring cup sets that are sized to the top rim are usually better at obtaining exact measurements for cooking instead of one cup that utilizes graduated markings.    

Glass measuring cup sets are produced today – allowing you to incorporate them into your cooking utensil collection. By using glass measuring cups you can replace older worn metal and plastic measuring cups with an elegant and beautiful addition to your kitchen. Be sure to follow a few simple steps when using glass measuring cups. First, glass measuring cups should not be taken from one temperature extreme to another (cold freezer to hot oven). Second, glass is more fragile than metal or plastic and can break when not stored or washed properly. There is a variety of glass cooking and baking supplies available which will help create your glassware cooking collection. You can also look in cooking or baking magazines for more suggestions on great kitchen items.

Glass measuring cups are readily available online as well as in many catalogs. Search for glass material and make sure to ask questions. Is this product dishwasher safe? Will the color fade over time? What are the measurements of the cups? These glass measuring cups can be found online at LookInTheAttic & Company, and they also offer free assistance and help.
