A large glass measuring cup typically features clear, durable glass construction, often marked with both metric measurements (milliliters) and standard measurements (cups, ounces, pints). The transparency of the glass allows for easy monitoring of ingredient levels, making it simple to see how much you have left without needing to open the container. Moreover, glass is non-reactive, which means it won’t alter the taste of your ingredients, making it especially valuable when working with acidic substances like tomatoes or vinegar.
