Have you ever heard the ludicrous claim that the hole in a slotted spoon is to measure one portion of spaghetti. If it was true you would get fuck all.
thanks bud
I’m gonna level with you, bird, I’d measure ALL of these things out. We’re quite carb-conscious in our household. No jazz-porridge for us.
really? sounds utterly ridiculous
I tend to measure out my pasta - if I don’t, we end up with a massive pasta surplus. Agreed with porridge / cereal though.
DONT - oil
nobody needs to get out a tablespoon to measure out oil. just slather it all over your body and let the excess drip off into a paper towel.
Nailed it mate, bang on for all of those.
I’d say the following:
Flour for baking - Needs to be measured
Flour for knocking up a white-sauce - Doesn’t need to be measured

Just to say that I was attempting to make this into some kind of Catchphrase thing but it’s not worked 
Whole lotta love
Rice doesn’t need measuring out.
without looking - I’d say Nancy Reagan
I measure porridge. I mean even if I’ve not got access to a scale I measure it by eye. I don’t just chuck some in a pan and hope.
You want just the right milk to porridge mix to make sure you get it perfect in the microwave so it needs a bit more milk after that you stir in to get it just the right temperature for the little girl.
For me this is 40g of porridge then milk to take it to 230g. Then it goes in the microwave 2 mins, stir, 1min 30s, take out, decant into her plastic bowl and mix in more milk until it’s creamy and a good temperature.
Well it doesn’t need measuring. You’ll still be able to cook rice with an inaccurate measurement. I just know how much I like to eat: just under a small mug full of rice between mrs CCB and I.
Nope
