About these units
Cup (US) (cup (US))
A US cup equals 8 fluid ounces, or approximately 236.588 mL. It is indispensable in American cooking, baking, and beverage measurement. Although not an SI unit, the cup remains deeply entrenched in recipes, cookbooks, and kitchen culture. Its intuitive size makes it ideal for measuring flour, sugar, liquids, and many everyday ingredients. American cups differ from metric and UK cups, leading to variation across international recipes, but within the US culinary tradition, the cup is a central volumetric tool.
Taza (Spanish) (taza)
A taza is a Spanish cup commonly defined as 250 mL, though older regional variations ranged between 200 and 300 mL. Used extensively in Spanish and Latin American cooking, baking, and beverage preparation, the taza serves a role similar to the US or metric cup. Because many Spanish recipes rely on the taza, understanding its modern standardized value helps ensure accurate international recipe translation. It also reflects how culinary practices shape measurement conventions.
