About these units
Dessertspoon (US) (dessertspoon)
The US dessertspoon, though rarely used today, traditionally equals 2 teaspoons or about 10 mL. Unlike the UK version, it never gained strong cultural traction in American cooking. Most US recipes skip directly from teaspoons to tablespoons, leaving the dessertspoon as a historical curiosity that occasionally appears in antique cookbooks. Despite its near-obsolescence, understanding the dessertspoon is important for culinary historians and those interpreting older domestic manuals.
Teaspoon (US) (tsp (US))
The US teaspoon equals 4.92892 mL, though rounded to 5 mL in most practical applications. Before standardization, teaspoon sizes varied widely across households and manufacturers. With the rise of packaged foods, pharmaceuticals, and industrial recipes, the US standardized teaspoon values brought consistency to cooking and medicine. Today, the teaspoon remains the most common household unit for measuring small amounts—especially spices, extracts, and medicines.
