These are measuring spoons ie 1 tablespoon 1 teaspoon etc.

So is that daft wee toy the only way of measuring those things? You don't have a teaspoon and a tablespoon nearby, no?

Some recipes call for exact measures. I have the same set of measuring spoons. You're obviously someone who microwaves beans.

If a recipe asks for a teaspoon of an ingredient, I use a teaspoon. Unless that multi-soon contraption measures more than that?

It measures the exact amount correctly. A normal teaspoon is for putting sugar/coffee into cups and stirring. You cannot use it for exact measures, you SCOOBY DOO WATCHING BEAST!

Using a regular teaspoon/tablespoon is perfectly acceptable for measuring. If the recipe asks for such a specific measurement, then f**k them, just wing it.

I have two different types of teaspoon and one is about double the size of the other! Also things like half a tablespoon is a good accurate measure to have rather than having to estimate it. Plus the spoon set only cost about 5 quid.

Don't listen to them throbber. I've got about three different sets of measuring spoons. An essential tool of the kitchen.

^^^shites himself when the recipe asks for 5ml but the ordinary teaspoon could hold anything between 4ml and 5.5ml IMO.

I also have a set of measuring cups for any recipes using American measurements.

My home baking is always exemplary.

I have those too. These heathens just don't understand the importance of accuracy, Mark.

For baking, measurement kit is an absolute must. I don't do baking tho, that's the wifes bit of the ship. I do the cooking which is fucking class. Love cooking. Accuracy not so important.

I'm with you in caveman corner - wife does all that sort of stuff. I just cook meat etc.
