A gallon (gal) is a unit of volume, most commonly associated with the imperial and US customary systems of measurement.
It is equal to 128 Fluid Ounces (fl-oz).
A common point of confusion is the difference between the US gallon and the imperial gallon (used in the UK and other Commonwealth nations).
They are not the same size!
This difference stems from historical definitions that were standardized differently in the US and Britain during the 18th and 19th centuries.
So, if you're comparing fuel efficiency, remember that "miles per gallon" ratings are based on different-sized gallons!
The word "gallon" has a rich history, tracing its roots back through several languages.
It originates from the Old Northern French word galon, which referred to a liquid measure.
This term is believed to have originated from the Gallo-Roman word gallēta, meaning a "pail" or "bucket." The ultimate origin likely goes back to a Celtic word, highlighting the unit's long-standing use in European trade and daily life for centuries.
While we typically associate the gallon with liquids, there is also a US dry gallon.
This unit, not commonly used today, is equivalent to one-eighth of a bushel, or about 4.405 liters. It was historically used to measure dry goods such as grain or fruit.
This is also why the famous "10-gallon hat" is a misnomer; its name doesn't refer to its volume.
Instead, it is thought to originate from the Spanish word galón, meaning "braid," which refers to the braided band on the hat.
A Kryddmått (krm) is a Swedish unit of volume equal to 1 milliliter (ml).
It's a common measurement in Scandinavian recipes, especially for small, potent ingredients where accuracy is essential. The plural form is also Kryddmått.
The term "Kryddmått" is Swedish and directly translates to "spice measure."
This name perfectly reflects its primary purpose in Scandinavian kitchens: accurately measuring small quantities of ingredients.
This includes potent ingredients like cardamom and nutmeg, as well as leavening agents like baking powder, where precision is key.
While a Kryddmått is standardized as exactly 1 ml, it's helpful to see how it compares to other common kitchen measurements.
Here are the most valuable conversions:
This means if a recipe calls for one krm and you don't have the specific spoon, you can use 1/5 of a standard 5 ml teaspoon.
The Kryddmått isn't just a theoretical unit — it's also a tiny measuring spoon.
In standard Scandinavian spoon sets, it's the smallest, usually marked "1 krm."
Those sets typically include a tablespoon (15 ml), a teaspoon (5 ml), and the Kryddmått (1 ml). This little spice spoon is essential for anyone cooking authentic Scandinavian recipes.
