Sharing Information About Australia

When using a recipe from another country, you should be aware that standard measuring utensils vary greatly. Australia uses metrics as our standard for measuring so adjust your recipes accordingly.

For example an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons) while a UK tablespoon is 15 ml (3 teaspoons).
