Measuring spoons should equal in quantity to measuring cups, correct?



How do I know for sure that when I put two tablespoons of sugar in a
recipe that is in fact two Tablespoons? or if a bread recipe calls for
two teaspoons of yeast that I am adding the correct amount.

The only accurate way to measure ingredients is with a decent scale. For
most recipes, spoons and cups will give acceptable results. If you really
want reliable, repeatable measurements, you should use a scale.
