Reddit reviews Pinch Dash Smidgen Measuring Spoons

Yup, you can also find spoons for a "dash" and a "pinch".

Except that she was right.

You can actually acquire measuring spoons in those sizes too.

You can even buy measuring spoons in that size.

deeez! They make them approx lol.

actually it's a smidgen or dash measuring spoon for dosage and all plus if you have a nice metal one it's easy to scoop because it's thinner than plastic/a shell ;)

That being said, I give you props for creativity, it's a perfectly good solution.

"Season to taste" is often hard at the beginning while you're learning but honestly - it's always hard for some people. You might be like most people who learn by trial and error or you might be like my best friend who just has a very limited sense of taste. (I'm not exaggerating. He can describe a sauce as "red" but can't tell if it's tomato-based.) If, after trying for a while, you find you're one of those few who continue to struggle, then look for "staple" dishes you enjoy eating and take specific notes about the seasoning levels everyone likes so you can just replicate the measurements down the road.

With things like salt and pepper, remember that you can always add more later so you don't have to figure out the perfect amount while cooking the larger portion; folks can just season their own servings if needed.

These are kind of cute and give informal measurements of "A dash = 1/8 tsp, a pinch= 1/16 tsp and a smidgen = 1/32 tsp." Maybe you use measurements like this as a "cheat sheet" until you figure out what tastes good to you.

pffffft, a pinch is a perfectly reasonable measurement! https://www.amazon.com/Pinch-Dash-Smidgen-Measuring-Spoons/dp/B000E8OPVS
