Understanding Smidgens and Dashes
What is a Smidgen?
A smidgen is a precise culinary measurement equal to 1/32 of a teaspoon. While it may seem incredibly small, this measurement is particularly useful when working with potent spices or in precise baking recipes where every grain counts.
What is a Dash?
A dash is equivalent to 1/8 of a teaspoon or approximately 4 smidgens. This measurement is commonly used in cooking when a recipe calls for a small amount of seasoning. One dash is roughly the amount that comes out with one sharp shake of a shaker-top spice container.
Conversion Formula
The formula to convert smidgens to dashes is:
Dashes = Smidgens ÷ 4
This means that one smidgen is equal to 0.25 dashes.
