Etymology
Noun
smidgen (plural smidgens)
A very small quantity or amount.
Synonyms: hair's breadth, Thesaurus:modicum
Usage notes
Some cookbooks and manufacturers of kitchen measurement sets have attempted to define a smidgen for recipes. Anything between 1/25 and 1/48 of a teaspoon may be found, 1/32 being perhaps the most commonly used. Other commonly used measures for small amounts include tad, dash, pinch, and drop. There seems to be some consensus of tad being the largest in this set and a smidgen being larger than a drop but smaller than a pinch.
