Measuring 125g of all-purpose flour without a scale
No scale? 125 g of all-purpose flour is about 1 cup (1.04 cups), or roughly 1 cup + 1 tablespoon using standard US measuring cups and spoons. Spoon it in and level off the top instead of scooping, which packs in extra.
125 g of all-purpose flour is about 1.04 US cups, almost a clean cup plus a teaspoon. Many UK and Australian recipes adopt 125 g as their working cup of flour, so when a British recipe says one cup it often means this. It suits a single batch of pancakes, a small crumble topping, or shortcrust for one tart shell. The near-one-cup overlap makes 125 g a frequent point of confusion between metric and US measures, which is exactly why weighing wins.
