A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary and cooking measurement unit equal to 1/3 of a tablespoon - approximately 4.929 mL. It is fundamental to cooking and baking worldwide: nearly every recipe in US-published cookbooks uses teaspoons as the basic small measurement for spices, baking powder, vanilla, and other minor ingredients.
