1. Measuring Spoon

Measuring spoons are special, standardized spoons used to measure very small quantities of ingredients by volume quickly and accurately.


Even in metric countries, many small quantities of ingredients are measured with measuring spoons rather than by weight, because it's too much bother to weigh them out. In metric countries, they are even referred to as teaspoons, rather than by referring to their metric volume in millilitres. A French recipe wouldn't call for 15 ml of dried sage; it would call for "une cuillère" (a teaspoon.)



That being said, most Europeans "don't sweat the small stuff" when it comes to measuring spoons. They just whip a spoon out of the drawer. If pulling any old spoon out of the drawer seems shocking, bear in mind that there are no official standards-checkers for North American measuring spoons: it's not uncommon that one set can vary from another by as much as 25%.



Teaspoons and tablespoons are unofficial measurements. They're not legally defined because they aren't used in commerce or in science, so they never seemed to merit the attention of government. In North America, compliance in measurement accuracy for any measuring utensils isn't enforced. For the purpose of metric conversion in nutrition labelling, though, U.S. federal law (21 CFR 101.9(b)(5)(viii))) says that a tablespoon is 15 ml (by convention, for kitchen use, it's thought of as 1/2 oz, though it isn't quite exactly), and that a teaspoon is 5 ml.



Measuring spoons can be made of stainless steel, plastic, wood, copper, ceramic, even Jadeite glass. If you get metal ones, make sure they are dishwasher safe. Stainless steel ones can bend if you're using them to dig out something like hardened brown sugar -- just gently bend them back into shape as much as you can. Many plastic ones in North America meet their end after being carried out of the cutlery basket in the dishwasher by a jet of water, and landing on the heating coils that North American dishwashers have at the bottom, where they get melted into something unrecognizable.



Metal and plastic ones usually have holes in the end of the handles, and are joined together by a ring passing through the holes. The rings keep the sets together; the spoons in the set nestle together (in theory) for storage into each other's bowls. Some plastic ones detach easily from their rings for separate use, then snap back on for storage (though eventually, of course, one snap gets forgotten, then another, and eventually you have just this ring floating by itself about your drawer.) Thus starts the great debate everyone has with themselves: do I leave my set of Measuring Spoons all together, so that they're easier to find and one of them doesn't go astray, or do I take them apart, so that when one is dirty, only one has to be washed, and so that when I'm using them, I'm not trying to keep the dirty one that has butter on it from flopping into the baking powder that I'm measuring with another of them? Some people take them all apart, and solve the "storing together" problem by dedicating a slot in their drawer divider to them.


Most measuring spoons have rounded bottoms. Some have bent handles allowing them to rest on the counter without tipping out the contents of their measuring bowls; some allow the resting to happen by dint of flat-bottomed bowls.

3. Measuring Jug


A measuring cup or measuring jug is a kitchen utensil used primarily to measure the volume of liquid or bulk solid cooking ingredients such as flour and sugar, especially for volumes from about 50 mL (2 fl oz) upwards. Measuring cups are also used to measure washing powder, liquid detergents and bleach for clothes washing. The cup will usually have a scale marked in cups and fractions of a cup, and often with fluid measure and weight of a selection of dry foodstuffs.

Measuring cups may be made of plastic, glass, or metal. Transparent (or translucent) cups can be read from an external scale; metal ones only from a dipstick or scale marked on the inside.
