The Tablespoon (Metric) (tbsp) in Volume

What is Tablespoon (metric) (tbsp)

The tablespoon (metric), often abbreviated as tbsp, is a unit of volume measurement commonly used in cooking and food preparation. It is part of the metric system and is equivalent to 15 milliliters (mL). The tablespoon is frequently used to measure ingredients in recipes, making it a crucial tool in both professional kitchens and home cooking.

The metric tablespoon is standardized as 1 tablespoon = 15 mL, which simplifies conversions between different volume units. Its size can vary slightly in some regions, particularly in the context of cooking where a "US tablespoon" may have a different volume compared to a "UK tablespoon." However, for metric measurements, the tablespoon is fixed at 15 mL.
