Use your index and middle fingers as your measuring guide and slice the width of the two fingers. Close enough.

Subject: [CnD] Any hints for cutting tablespoons of butter off a stick?


Hi all,
I usually have a sighted person cut the proper amount of butter off the sticks we keep, because I always forget to pickup one of those slicers. Today, though, it's just me, but I want to make a cake for when everyone else gets home. It calls for two tablespoons of butter, and all I have are the usual 8-tablespoon sticks. Does anyone have any hints on how I might cut the proper amount, given that I can't, of course, see the markings on the butter's wrapper? This cake is somewhat forgiving, but I'm notoriously bad at estimating butter and I'd rather not take a chance on messing up the rest of the cake if I don't have to. Thanks.
