Teaspoon (metric)
A metric teaspoon is a unit of volume in the metric system. It is defined as 5 milliliters (mL). It is commonly used in cooking and food preparation to measure both liquid and dry ingredients.
The metric teaspoon is derived from the liter, which is the base unit of volume in the metric system. The metric teaspoon was introduced to provide a convenient unit for measuring smaller volumes, particularly in cooking and food preparation. It is widely used in countries that have adopted the metric system.

The US dessertspoon originated from the traditional use of spoons for measuring small quantities of ingredients in cooking.

Despite the global transition to the metric system, the US dessertspoon continues to be used in the United States for measuring ingredients in cooking.
