Measuring Spoons

Sold in sets, measuring spoons take the guesswork out of portioning dry ingredients. Commonly measuring spoon sets include quarter, half, and one teaspoon, along with half and one tablespoon sizes. Measuring spoons are crafted from a variety of materials including metal, plastic, ceramic, and nylon. Many manufacturers craft measuring spoon sets in various styles and designs to match kitchen decor.

Measuring spoons are typically used only for dry ingredients or liquids such as extracts and other items needing only a small portion. Easily cleaned and a necessity in any working kitchen, measuring spoons are one of the most functional cooking utensils.
