Most types of flour keep well in a sealed container in a cool, dry, and dark location. The original paper packaging used for many types of flour is fine for long term storage as long as the package has not been opened.

Individual graduated dry measuring cups are used to measure large quantities of flour while measuring spoons can be used to measure the smallest quantities. When measuring flour, it is best to fill the measuring device until the flour is heaping above the rim.
