Tablespoon (US) (Tbsp)
The US tablespoon, symbolized as Tbsp, equals 3 teaspoons or approximately 14.7868 milliliters. Originally based on the dining table spoon, it became standardized in the United States for cooking and nutrition. Tablespoons are widely used in recipes, food labeling, and the pharmaceutical industry. Like teaspoons, they enable consistent measurements in both home kitchens and professional culinary settings. The simplicity of linking teaspoons to tablespoons ensures practical, error-free conversions.
Pint (US)
The US pint is a customary unit equal to 2 cups or 16 fluid ounces (~473.176 milliliters). Derived from British measures, it has been standardized in the US for liquid volumes. Pints are commonly used for beverages, dairy products, and liquid ingredients. Its use simplifies larger-volume measurements in recipes while maintaining compatibility with smaller units, such as cups and fluid ounces.
