About these units
Hin (Biblical) (hin)
The hin is a smaller Biblical liquid measure, estimated at roughly 3.7–4 liters, or 1/6 of a bath. It was used primarily for ritual offerings, such as anointing oils and sacrificial libations. Because hin-sized quantities were manageable and portable, priestly instructions in Exodus and Leviticus frequently specify hin measurements for ceremonial mixtures. The hin illustrates how ancient systems used proportional units to structure both sacred and economic activities.
Dessertspoon (US) (dessertspoon)
The US dessertspoon, though rarely used today, traditionally equals 2 teaspoons or about 10 mL. Unlike the UK version, it never gained strong cultural traction in American cooking. Most US recipes skip directly from teaspoons to tablespoons, leaving the dessertspoon as a historical curiosity that occasionally appears in antique cookbooks. Despite its near-obsolescence, understanding the dessertspoon is important for culinary historians and those interpreting older domestic manuals.
