That’s why the volume of whole lavender buds and that of finely chopped lavender will be about the same. Note: Lavender buds will pack tightly together. ⅓ cup packed basil leaves (about 10 medium/large leaves) How many teaspoons are in a tablespoon? Unit: You can calculate the specific amounts of finely chopped herb you need using the conversions for teaspoons to tablespoons and tablespoons to cups listed below. Because of that I have included the length of each sprig measured in this guide. Sprigs can vary dramatically in size, even within a given plant. What is a sprig / How much is a sprig:Ī sprig of an herb is a small branch of the herb plant (usually between 4 and 6 inches long, unless otherwise specified).
The amounts reported in this guide are the average of the three measurements. Then I finely chopped the leaves, transferred them into a measuring spoon and noted their volume. For each measurement, I cut the leaves off the sprig and packed them into a measuring spoon or cup and noted the amount. I did each measurement three times, meaning I selected three sprigs of the same length for each herb. I included basil, chive, cilantro, dill, lavender, marjoram, mint, rosemary, parsley (flat leaf and curly leaf), oregano, sage, tarragon and thyme. To create this guide, I analyzed sprigs of all common culinary herbs. I also included photographs to provide a visual reference for what each measured herb sprig looked like.
