Unboxing and Features Overview

Operating Instructions

These measuring cups are designed for accurate and easy measurement of both dry and liquid ingredients. Each cup features clearly engraved measurements on the handle and internal markings for smaller increments, enhancing versatility.

Measuring Dry Ingredients:

1. Select the appropriate measuring cup size.
2. Scoop the ingredient into the cup until it overflows slightly.
3. Use a straight edge (like a knife or the back of another measuring cup) to level off the excess ingredient, ensuring an accurate measure.

Measuring Liquid Ingredients:

1. Select the appropriate measuring cup size.
2. Pour the liquid into the cup. For precise measurements, bend down to eye level with the cup to read the liquid line accurately.
3. Utilize the internal markings for smaller liquid volumes if needed.

Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and pristine condition of your Sur La Table Stainless Steel Measuring Cups, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning: These measuring cups are dishwasher safe. For best results, place them on the top rack. Hand washing with warm, soapy water is also effective and recommended for immediate cleaning.
• Drying: Dry thoroughly after washing to prevent water spots and maintain the stainless steel's luster.
• Storage: The nesting design and easy-open ring allow for compact and organized storage. Keep them together on the ring to prevent misplacement and save drawer space.
• Avoid Harsh Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.

Troubleshooting

While the Sur La Table Stainless Steel Measuring Cups are designed for reliability, here are some common considerations:

• Inaccurate Measurements: Ensure cups are clean and dry before use. For dry ingredients, level off properly. For liquids, read at eye level.
• Sticking Ingredients: For sticky ingredients like honey or syrup, lightly coat the inside of the cup with cooking spray or oil before measuring to ensure easy release.
• Rust Spots: Although made of stainless steel, prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or high salt content can cause minor discoloration. Clean promptly and dry thoroughly.
