How Much Is 1.01 Grams of Egg Whites in Teaspoons?
1.01 grams of egg whites equals 0.20 tsp. Egg whites has a density of 243g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.01 grams of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 1.01g ÷ 243g/cup = 0.0042 cups × 48 = 0.20 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.

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.
