Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 113g/cup × 48 = teaspoons
  1. Start with 1.67 grams of cheddar cheese (shredded)
  2. 1 cup of cheddar cheese (shredded) = 113g
  3. 1.67g ÷ 113g/cup = 0.01 cups × 48 = 0.71 teaspoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Always shred or grate cheese before measuring by volume. A cup of block cheese weighs much more than a cup of shredded.

Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.

What is a Teaspoon?

One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.71 tsp, based on cheddar cheese (shredded) having a density of 113g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 113 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 48 to get teaspoons. For 1.67 grams: 1.67 ÷ 113 = 0.01 cups × 48 = 0.71 tsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh cheddar cheese (shredded) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 0.71 tsp ÷ 48 = 0.0147788 cups, then 0.0147788 × 113g/cup = 1.67g. Or use the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
