Measuring Spoons for Odd Sizes

Measuringspoons

Flummoxed by how to measure an 1/8th of a teaspoon of salt? This set of five odd-sized measuring spoons includes tools to measure a "pinch," 1/8 Tsp., 2/3 Tsp., 1½ Tsp, and 2 Tsp. $15 at The Spoon Sisters.

hmm... if you had a regular set of measuring spoons... there is normally a 1/2 tbsp... adn that's 1 1/2 tsp, isn't it? 1/8 tsp is a feature in most measuring spoon sets i have, but he 2 tsp could come in handy. i rarely see 2/3 tsp in recipes though and a pinch is just a pinch. i love the handles though... but $15 is a tad expensive, especially with shipping.

True. In fact, I'm usually to lazy to rummage around for real measuring spoons anyway. But, for the OCD baker who has everything, this may be the perfect gift.

Kayenne, I don't know where you shop for measuring spoons, but I have only one regular set that includes both 1/8 tsp. and 1/2 Tbsp. Oddly enough, it's a set of super-cheap plastic spoons. I have one or two other sets that include 1/8 tsp., but they're the exception. In most sets I've seen, the smallest spoon is 1/4 tsp.

And Josh, I don't have to rummage for measuring spoons. I keep mine in a mug.
