Measuring Spoons
What is a Measuring Spoon?
Used to measure liquid or dry ingredients when cooking, measuring spoons come in different teaspoon- and tablespoon-sized increments. Some of the most common are ¼, ½ and 1 for teaspoons, and ½ and 1 for tablespoons. A measuring spoon can be made of plastic, metal or earthenware. Not only are they functional while cooking and baking, they also add a stylistic element to the kitchen. For a unified aesthetic, coordinate all of your kitchen supplies. For instance, stainless steel measuring spoons and cups pair well with modern appliances. If you're going for a contemporary take, arrange copper utensils in a crock on the counter, and opt for spoons made of the same material, too. Prefer a colorful presentation? Glazed earthenware spoons in vibrant hues bring a cheerful touch to the kitchen. Tie the look together with dish towels, rugs and curtains to continue to whimsical feel.
