Common Abbreviations and Kitchen Measurements

CUSTOMARY (Used by United States) Teaspoon: t or tsp Tablespoon: T or Tbsp Cup: c

CUSTOMARY (Used by United States) Pint pt Quart qt Gallon gal Ounce oz Fluid Ounce fl oz Pound lb Degrees Fahrenheit °F Count ct

METRIC (used by the rest of the world) Millimeter mm Liter L Milliliter mL Gram g Degrees Celcius °C

Basic Kitchen Measurements 1 lb = 16 oz 1 T = 3 t 1 C = 16 T 8 fl oz

Liquid Kitchen Measurements ½ fl oz= 1 T Remember there are 16 T in 1 c and 8 fl oz in 1 c so 16 = 2 T per 1 fl oz 8

If you remember that there are 16 T in 1 c, then...

Small Kitchen Measurements Approximately ⅛ tsp = dash Less than ⅛ tsp = pinch

Kitchen Measurements 1 pt = 1 qt = 1 gal = 2 c 4 c or 2 pt 16 c or 4 qt

STANDARD U.S. MEASURING SETS Measuring spoons: ¼ t, ½ t, 1 t, ½ T, 1 T Measuring cups: ¼ c, 1/3 c, ½ c, 1 c

YIELD= SERVINGS PREPARED OR AMOUNT THE RECIPE MAKES To adjust servings/yield, use the CONVERSION FACTOR: = Servings Needed Servings in Original Recipe

Your recipe makes 4 servings, EXAMPLE Your recipe makes 4 servings, but you only need 2. Servings Needed Servings in Recipe 2 4 Reduce the fraction and multiply each ingredient by ½
