One final weird fact. If you use a ⅓ cup measure, you need 2¼ of them to make ¾ cup. That’s messy. Stick with the half-cup. It’s cleaner. It’s simpler. It’s your new best friend.
So next time you see ¾ cup in a recipe, don’t flinch. Grab that ½ cup. Fill it once. Fill it halfway again. Smile at your own genius. You’ve conquered fractions, saved a dish, and made yourself look like a hero. Now go bake something delicious. You’ve earned it.
