Can any body advise please.
I am trying to follow an American recipe. I can convert the 2 cups of milk but have no idea how much 2T of maple syrup is.
It does not help that further down the list of ingredients the full words e.g 1/2 teaspoon and 2 tablespoons, are used.

So just how much is 2T?

My DD2 lives in the US and tells me 2T means 2 tablespoons. If it is a small t it indicates teaspoons. Hope that helps smile
