Which "cup" does your recipe mean?

US recipes mean the 360 ml cup used here. Australian, NZ, and many metric recipes mean a 250 ml cup — for 1 1/2 cups that's 375 ml, a 6% difference that only matters in large batches. Old UK recipes may mean the 284 ml imperial cup; when in doubt, convert to grams instead.
