These are the most essential tools for cooking and baking and they are used in both the metric and imperial systems.
So coming to the question, 1 tablespoon is equal to 3 teaspoons.
Scaling a recipe up or down, going from tablespoons to teaspoons is not as simple as it seems, there are some complexities one has to deal with. The conversation is simple. Simply multiply the number of tablespoons you'll need by 3 to get the equivalent number of teaspoons.
The opposite conversion is also just the simple, divide the number of tsp by 3.
