I like my glass measuring cups but the printing on them has really disappeared over time. Does anyone have a measuring cup that they love?

    I just weigh the fluids.

    Water is 1g per ml and most other things are close enough that I don’t care.

      I don’t know if there’s a name for it, but an increasing number of recipe writers are using only weight based measurements. This is super handy because you just have a scale, add ingredients, and just tare as you need. The measurements are also more accurate because, eg, flour can be compacted, so “1 cup of flour” could vary by a lot depending on how you measure it.

        Salt is another example. A teaspoon of salt can be a very different amount depending on if you use fine salt, coarse salt or even flaky salt.
