Tablespoon to Teaspoon Conversions

Many recipes specify small amounts of an ingredient in terms of spoonfuls, either a tablespoonful or a teaspoonful, these can be level, rounded or heaped depending on the ingredient and the author of the recipe. For the purpose of our conversions a rounded spoon is considered to be equal to 2 level spoons and a heaped spoon to 3 level spoons.

The first converter covers the majority of countries, with the Australian spoon converter being seperate as the Australian tablespoon is defined as 4 teaspoons, rather than the 3 that is used elsewhere. The Australian conversions can also be used when dealing with older British recipes as the UK tablespoon used to be larger than the currently accepted standard.
