About Cooking

Volume in the kitchen

Recipes use cups, tablespoons and teaspoons (US) or milliliters (metric). This converter bridges them so you can follow any recipe.

Handy equivalents

1 US cup is about 236.6 ml, 1 tablespoon about 14.79 ml, 1 teaspoon about 4.93 ml, and 3 teaspoons make 1 tablespoon.

Dry vs liquid

These are volume conversions. For dry ingredients like flour, weight (grams) is more accurate than volume, so use a scale when precision matters.

Frequently asked questions

How many tablespoons in a cup?

About 16 US tablespoons in a US cup.

Is a US cup the same as metric?

No — a US cup is about 236.6 ml, while metric cups are often 250 ml.

Should I weigh dry ingredients?

Yes, weighing in grams is more accurate than volume for flour and sugar.
