Dessertspoon (UK)

The UK dessertspoon is a unit of volume in the imperial system. It is defined as 2 UK teaspoons or 2/3 of a UK tablespoon. One UK dessertspoon is approximately 11.8388 milliliters (mL). It is commonly used in cooking to measure small quantities of ingredients.

Origin:

The UK dessertspoon originated from the traditional use of spoons for measuring small quantities of ingredients in cooking. It was standardized in the imperial system to be 2 UK teaspoons or 2/3 of a UK tablespoon. This standardization helped provide consistency in recipes and cooking instructions. Despite the global transition to the metric system, the UK dessertspoon continues to be used in the United Kingdom for measuring ingredients in cooking.

Liter

The liter (L) is a unit of volume in the metric system. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides that are each 10 centimeters long, which is equivalent to 1,000 cubic centimeters (cm³) or 0.001 cubic meters (m³). One liter is also equivalent to 1,000 milliliters (mL).

Origin:

The liter was originally introduced in France in the 18th century as part of the metric system during the French Revolution. It was based on the volume of 1 kilogram of water at the temperature of its maximum density, which is about 4°C. Over time, the liter became a standard unit for measuring liquids and volumes in many countries around the world. Although the liter is not an SI base unit (the SI unit of volume is the cubic meter), it is accepted for use with the SI, and it remains widely used internationally for measuring everyday volumes, such as beverages, fuel, and cooking ingredients.
