Tala Stainless Steel Measuring Spoons Measurements: 15 ml 7.5 ml 5 ml 2.5 ml 1.25 ml Dishwasher safe. 'I know many of you don’t need to be told this, but if you see a teaspoon, tablespoon or fractions thereof stipulated in a recipe, it is actually a precise measurement that’s being called for. A tablespoon in a recipe, for example, has a 15ml capacity and a teaspoon a 5ml capacity; it’s impossible to give across-the-board weight equivalents as measuring spoons (and measuring cups) are to measure volume not weight. Now, there’s not a terrible amount of error you can make with a teaspoon, but I always worry that people might just use a serving spoon when a tablespoon is indicated, and that would throw everything off hideously! If you bake, in particular, you do need these spoons, which include a quarter teaspoon, half teaspoon, teaspoon, half-tablespoon and tablespoon measures.' Nigella Lawson
