How to measure paprika

Small amounts are measured with level measuring spoons; for spices a tiny weighing error matters little, but for salt and leaveners use level spoons.

Weights are for a level US cup (236.6 ml) and level spoons, from USDA FoodData Central household measures. Brands and packing vary by a few per cent; when a recipe gives grams, weigh rather than measure.
