Dash & Pinch

Definisi

Dash adalah ukuran masakan informal sekitar 1/8 sendok teh (0,6 mL), dan pinch adalah sekitar 1/16 sendok teh (0,3 mL).

Penjelasan

Neither unit has a universally fixed definition; recipes rely on cook judgment. In cocktail mixing, a dash of bitters is more standardized at roughly 0.9 mL from a dasher-top bottle. A 'smidgen' sits between the two at about 1/32 teaspoon. These micro-measures matter most for potent flavorings like cayenne, where a tablespoon instead of a pinch would ruin a dish.
