When I put honey in a spoon or measuring cup, the residue stays and it’s hard to get all of it out. How do I make it all come out? Is there a way to measure honey without leaving honey on a spoon?

As, since this answer other suggestions have abounded, let me clarify.
These methods assume you want no wastage & also no cross-contamination of your source jar of the sticky component. They also require almost nothing in the way of 'extra equipment'.
Depending on what the next steps to your recipe are, I can think of three alternatives. None are perfect and each would suit a different scenario.
Tip it and leave it a long time.
Heat it slightly. Microwave or sit the container in hot water.
