Measure Dry Herbs

To measure dry ingredients, lightly fill a measuring spoon to the top -- it's not necessary to level with a spatula -- keeping the level as close as the top as possible. Then empty the spoon into your hand and crush the herb with your other hand. (Or, to use a mortar and pestle). This breaks the leaves to better release their flavor.
