So, how many teaspoons are in a tablespoon?

After a while, you just know how many teaspoons are in a tablespoon. Or, how many cups are in a quart. Of the many bits of kitchen information that we have stuffed in our heads, some of the most useful are the kitchen equivalents. They are so useful, we have printed them on the back of our business cards.

Since we can't hand you our business card, we are reprinting the most useful kitchen equivalents here. We will have a follow-up to this post with other useful conversions, like how many tablespoons of lemon juice you can expect to get from the average lemon.
