Marinated Asparagus and Diced Tomatoes

How good is your ounce to tablespoon conversion? I'm going to type this recipe as is, then translate it into tablespoons at the bottom:

Marinated Asparagus and Diced Tomatoes

1 bunch asparagus
1 cup plum tomatoes, diced
1 oz fresh basil (1 tsp dried)
3 oz oil
1 oz balsamic vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste

-Wisk together the basil, oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
-Blanche asparagus for 3 minutes, and rinse in cold water
-Mix asparagus and tomatoes into basil oil and vinegar.
-Refrigerate until serving.

1 fluid ounce = 2 Tablespoons
(so this recipe needs 6 TB oil, and 2 of balsamic vinegar)
