How to measure cottage cheese

Pour liquids into a liquid measuring jug on a flat surface and read it at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt is spooned in and levelled.

Weights are for a level US cup (236.6 ml) and level spoons, from King Arthur Baking's ingredient weight chart. Brands and packing vary by a few per cent; when a recipe gives grams, weigh rather than measure.
