If your recipe calls for a number of ounces or pounds of flour, weighing it on a kitchen scale is most accurate. If it calls for cups, fluff the flour lightly with your fingers so it's not packed down, scoop up the flour in the appropirate measuring cup, then level off the top with a knife or other straight edge.
