This is especially important if you need to know the conversion from one kitchen unit measurement to the other. Therefore, knowing your Kitchen measurement equivalents can come in very handy. Needless to say, it is very important to double check your measurements for your recipe. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_-RxFG9Q7LUY/R3K3-qSd7ZI/AAAAAAAAAas/W7-TfoZFz2c/s1600-h/measuring+spoons.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_-RxFG9Q7LUY/R3K3-qSd7ZI/AAAAAAAAAas/W7-TfoZFz2c/s400/measuring+spoons.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5148379611169418642" border="0" /></a>It is important to note that not all tablespoons are equivalent. As such; The Australian tablespoon is 20 ml. The British tablespoon is 17.7 ml. The American tablespoon is actually 14.2 ml. The Canadian tablespoon is 15 ml . The tables below give the Kitchen Measurement Equivalents or Kitchen Measurements Conversion in both Fluid Ounces (volume measurement) and Dry Ounces (weight measurement). You can use these liquid or dry measurement in your kitchen recipe measurement should the need ever arise. <hr /><div style="text-align: center;">Kitchen Measurement Conversion Equivalents Units </div><hr />Fluid Ounces (Volume Measurement) (approximate) <table style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" border="1" height="1" width="425"> <tbody><tr style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><td colspan="5" bg="" width="425"><center>Liquid (Volume) Measures </center></td></tr><tr><td style="font-weight: bold;
