A "measuring spoon" is a specially designed spoon, usually part of a set with different sizes, used in cooking to precisely measure small amounts of ingredients, either liquid or dry, by filling it to a specific level marked on the spoon itself; commonly including sizes like a teaspoon and tablespoon.

Plastic measuring spoons are usually durable and can last for years. Plastic measuring spoons stain over time. Even though plastic measuring spoons are usually made from thick plastic, they can melt or break if they are placed in the bottom rack of the dishwasher.
