Cooking Measurements & Equivalents

While I hate measuring everything exactly, this chart does come in handy… especially if your neighbor kid Timmy lost your measuring cup in his sandbox — and you’re stuck with a teaspoon. In that case, I hope you have a lot of free time on your hands.

1/3 cup =	5 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon
3/8 cup =	6 tablespoons
1/2 cup =	8 tablespoons
2/3 cup =	10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons
3/4 cup =	12 tablespoons
1 cup =	48 teaspoons
1 cup =	16 tablespoons
8 fluid ounces (fl oz) =	1 cup
1 pint (pt) =	2 cups
