TalaOriginals Tala 1950s Cooks Measure

Best item for the kitchen

There's a reason these have been around for so long. I remember using one at school in home economics lessons, and my nan had one that was already decades old by that point. It's got a very old fashioned tin-plate feel to it, quite simple and lightweight but perfectly suited to the job it's meant to do. It works well, so why change it?The markings are clear and easy to read, covering everything from rice and flour to sugar and raisins. Obviously not quite as accurate as a scale, but perfectly fine (and much quicker) for day to day use.Tala also make a curry measure for Indian recipes, so that one will be next on my list!

This is probably a good product, but it didn't work out for me as I wished. Still, if you are a pro baker or are baking a lot and often - it might work. But it looks nice in the kitchen, I have to admit.

I’ve started a collection of the various tala measure items. I love how easy and time saving these are, rather than transferring food from scales to mixing bowls etc. Tala products look great on display in the kitchen too.

La plupart des commentaires anglo-saxons disent que l'objet rouille facilement, même soigneusement essuyé. Malgré cela, l'achat vaut la peine parce qu'il permet, au simple regard, de voir toutes les correspondances entre les oz, grammes, cups, pint, ml, grâce aux inscriptions intérieures et extérieures. Il est décoratif si l'on aime collectionner les objets de cuisine utiles. Il permet de suivre sans difficulté les recettes de cuisine de livres étrangers. Je pense que je l'utiliserait sans le remplir, en complément de la balance. La mesure est arrivée dans un carton, enveloppée d'un peu de papier et il y a un infime cabossage dessus.
