Understanding the Units

What is a Teaspoon?

A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.

What is an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many ounces is 5 teaspoons of type 00 flour? expand_more

About 0.47 oz, based on type 00 flour having a density of 127g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.

How do I measure type 00 flour accurately? expand_more

For the most accurate results, weigh type 00 flour on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.

Does the measurement method affect how much type 00 flour weighs per cup? expand_more

Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring spoon and level it off, you will get about 127 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 139.7 to 158.75 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
