Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

What is a Gram?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
