About these units
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.
Taza (Spanish) (taza)
A taza is a Spanish cup commonly defined as 250 mL, though older regional variations ranged between 200 and 300 mL. Used extensively in Spanish and Latin American cooking, baking, and beverage preparation, the taza serves a role similar to the US or metric cup. Because many Spanish recipes rely on the taza, understanding its modern standardized value helps ensure accurate international recipe translation. It also reflects how culinary practices shape measurement conventions.
