A UK teaspoon is equivalent to 5 milliliters, which is slightly smaller than the standard metric teaspoon used in other countries. This discrepancy in teaspoon measurements can sometimes lead to confusion when following recipes from different regions.

Origin:

The origin of the UK teaspoon can be traced back to the 17th century when tea drinking became popular in England.

The teaspoon, with its small size and convenient shape, quickly became the preferred tool for this purpose.
