I've run into several recipes which asked for a "splash of" water, soy sauce, etc. How much is a "splash"? I assume if it's something more concrete like 1/4 cup, they would have said so. Since it's a "splash", I just poured some (1/2 a cup) water into a coffee cup and poured once around the pan, although, my control isn't that good so I probably ended up pouring 1/4-1/3 of a cup.
Everything still tasted ok but I'm just curious what a "splash" is.

I'd have to do some testing to get firmer values for things, but they're still ranges, as it depends on what you're pouring it from. Here's what I typically use for imprecise measurements:
Liquids
Solid powders/granules
Misc
