Gram Weights And Equivalents
About Recipe Gram Conversions
This tool is used for cooking and recipe conversions. When you convert from grams or ounces (weight) to teaspoons, tablespoons or cups (volume), you are converting from a weight to a volume. This simple calculation may not be highly accurate in many cases. This should not be used for measuring medicine or any form of critical science. Increasingly in the U.S. we encounter foods weighed in "grams" and we still live in a "teaspoons and measuring cup" country. Sometimes we just need an estimated amount for cooking.
