Detailed explanation-1: -Spoon. Instead of dipping the measuring cup into the container of flour, always use a spoon to scoop the flour into the measuring cup, piling it slightly over the top. This prevents the flour from being packed so firmly in the cup that you would have more flour than the recipe calls for.
Detailed explanation-2: -The most accurate way to measure flour is to use a digital scale. Weighing flour is better than measuring it by volume, because when you weigh it, you avoid all the problems associated with its density, or lack thereof.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stir your flour in case it is packed tightly into its container. Then, use a spoon and lightly spoon the flour into your measuring cup. Use a flat straight edge (like the straight back of a knife) to level off the top of the flour. Repeat until you have a smooth (not pock-marked) flour surface.
Detailed explanation-4: -Scoop up a mound of flour with a standard dinner spoon. Give the spoon a gentle shake, so the excess flour falls off the mound. Dinner spoons are also known as soup spoons. Measure out about 15.5 tbsp (121 g) of flour to get approximately 1 cup (120 g) of flour.
