Yeah i know, but a lot of people seem to use 1 tablespoon and it works fine as well. I've used both but the original recipe was 1tsp. as KaptKid said.

For the record, because of the language gap, a table spoon is where one can eat dinner or soup with, and with a teaspoon one stirs his or her coffee!? Or tea, lol.

LOL! I did not know that .
That those spoons where actual measurements, like a foot Here we also had elbows before actually.. :p
I found out that "a cup" is also a measurement across the ocean, there are so many sizes ood to find out that "a cup" is about 60ML
LOL now im curious what a gallon stands for actually? A hole in a big stone?

It is actually. 1 US teaspoon = 4.92892161 ml
>I found out that "a cup" is also a measurement across the ocean, there are so many sizes >ood to find out that "a cup" is about 60ML
A cup is actually more, 1 US cup = 236.588237 ml

"A unit of capacity in England, = 231 cubic inches, used in collecting import duties on wine.
Britain abandoned the wine gallon in 1826 when it adopted imperial measure, but the wine gallon is the basis of the U.S. gallon.
The wine gallon is sometimes said to have originated in the reign of Queen Anne, in 1706, and is sometimes called the wine gallon of Queen Anne. It is, however, centuries older. History
The wine gallon apparently originated (by the 14th century?) as a unit used by wine merchants. R. D. Connor suggests that it was probably the volume occupied by eight librae mercatoria of wine. From use by merchants to use by tax collectors is a short step, and for several hundred years the Excise collected duty on wine imports by the 231-cubic-inch gallon.
Then in 1688 someone told the Commissioners of the Excise that a 224-cubic-inch gallon was the ?true wine gallon.? The origins of the unit had been forgotten, but on looking into the matter, the Excise found that the custodian of all legal standards, the Exchequer, had a standard for a 272-cubic-inch gallon but none for one of 231 cubic inches.
Changing to a larger gallon would have caused a large drop in the King's revenues (since the tax was on the gallon), so the Commissioners carefully refrained from revising the standard. But the idea was out. In 1700, a canny wine importer sued the government on the grounds that there was no legal definition for the gallon the customs agents were using. The Crown had to forfeit the case. In 1706 the government remedied the matter by legalizing the wine gallon.footnote symbol"
