How Much Is 100 Grams of Couscous in Teaspoons?
Converting 100 grams of couscous to teaspoons gives 27.75 tsp. Divide by the density of couscous (173g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 100 grams of couscous
- 1 cup of couscous = 173g
- 100g ÷ 173g/cup = 0.58 cups × 48 = 27.75 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Uncooked and cooked grains have completely different weights per cup. These conversions are for uncooked/dry grains unless specified otherwise.

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.
