Australian vs US tablespoons
An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons). US, UK and New Zealand tablespoons are 15 ml (3 teaspoons).
| Measure | Australia | US | UK / NZ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Teaspoon | 5 ml | 4.93 ml | 5 ml |
| Tablespoon | 20 ml | 14.79 ml | 15 ml |
| Cup | 250 ml | 236.6 ml | 250 ml |
When using a US or UK recipe with Australian spoons, use 3 teaspoons for each tablespoon. The difference matters most for baking powder, bicarb soda, salt and gelatine.
