Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert teaspoons to tablespoons?
Divide by 3. For example, 6 tsp ÷ 3 = 2 tbsp.
How many tablespoons is 1 teaspoon?
A third of a tablespoon, about 4.9 mL.
How many teaspoons are in a cup?
48. A US cup is 16 tablespoons, and each tablespoon is 3 teaspoons.
Should the spoons be level or heaped?
Level, unless the recipe says otherwise. A heaped spoon of flour or sugar can hold nearly twice as much, which is why baking recipes that need precision give grams.
