Kitchen Volume Conversions.

I knew that drops had a standardized volume. (My mom tells me stories about how back in the day before automatic infusion pumps existed, she had to titrate the flow rate of IV fluids based on drops per minute.) I didn't realized dashes and pinches did, too.

Drops and pinches might not be things most people will find easy to standardize, though. At least without a measuring device.

Although I guess a drop in the kitchen isn't quite exactly the same as a drop in the hospital http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
- Victor Ganata
Those equivalences are all over the place, relatively speaking.

I have a set of measuring spoons for "Nip", "Smidgen", "Pinch" and "Dash". I don't really use them, but they're cute.

Yep, John, very similar. I like how they look so professional but you really don't need to measure anything that small when you're cooking.
