Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
What is a Tablespoon?
A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of ingredients.

Close, but not exactly. The grams to tablespoons conversion for nutmeg may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. A gram of nutmeg fills a different number of tablespoons than a gram of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
