Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.18 grams of cottage cheese
- 1 cup of cottage cheese = 226g
- 1.18g ÷ 226g/cup = 0.0052 cups × 48 = 0.25 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Spoon cottage cheese into the measuring spoon and pack gently to fill gaps. Do not scoop directly from the container, which leaves air pockets.

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 Teaspoon?
A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.
