* * * * * How to meaure ⅚ cup of oil, part IV My, it's amazing how a topic I wrote about twenty years ago [1] has been popular over the past few [2] years [3]. I just received an email from Jason Arencibia about an even easier method of measuring out ⅚ cup of oil: > From: Jason Arencibia > To: sean@conman.org > Subject: How to measure ⅚ cup of oil, super easy with 2 measuring cups. > Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2024 22:23:53 -0700 > > ½ cup + ⅓ cup = ⅚ cup 0.83333333333 of a cup. > > https://boston.conman.org/2024/05/11.1 [4] > And in all the years I've looked over recipes that use Imperial measurements, not one has ever used a sixth cup, or any multiple of a sixth cup. It just doesn't exist in the Imperial system!
