Foodie fam!! 👋👋 Have you ever pondered on how big an average ladle could be? 🥄 I've been thinking about the dimensions. Some ladles seem to scoop more than others. And mine's pretty hefty, but does that matter? Does anyone care to share their insights? 🤔
 
Hello! I think the size of a typical ladle for serving soups and sauces usually has a capacity ranging from 4 to 8 ounces. This size makes it easy to portion and serve liquid-based dishes without being too big:)

Ladles come in different sizes, but I think most are around the same range! 🥣 Though it can vary, I think they generally hold between 60 to 120 milliliters.
 
Agreed with the people in the com sec! Ladle sizes can vary widely, ranging from small soup ladles to larger serving ladles, with capacities typically measured in ounces or milliliters. The size of the ladle you use can affect the portion sizes of your dishes, but ultimately, it comes down to personal preference and the specific recipe you're preparing. 🥄🍲

I think that the usual ladle can carry between 1/4 and 1/2 cup of liquid, while actual sizes may differ based on the design and intended use. 🥄
