How Much Is 60.25 Grams of Kosher Salt (Morton) in Teaspoons?
60.25 grams of kosher salt (morton) equals 12.00 tsp. Kosher salt (morton) has a density of 241g 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 60.25 grams of kosher salt (morton)
- 1 cup of kosher salt (morton) = 241g
- 60.25g ÷ 241g/cup = 0.25 cups × 48 = 12.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
If substituting one salt type for another, convert by weight (grams) rather than volume to keep the salinity correct.

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?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
