About Milliliter to Tablespoon Conversion

Converting milliliters to tablespoons can be tricky because there are different tablespoon measurements used around the world:

  • Metric System: In most countries using the metric system, 1 tablespoon = 15 milliliters exactly.
  • US System: In the United States, 1 tablespoon = 14.7868 milliliters (approximately 14.79 ml).

The difference between these measurements is small (about 0.2 ml), but it can become significant when scaling up recipes or when precise measurements are needed for medical or scientific purposes.

Tip: For everyday cooking, you can use either measurement as the difference is minimal. However, for precise measurements or when following specific recipes, use the appropriate system based on the recipe's origin.
