How Much Is 240 Grams of Onions (Diced) in Teaspoons?
240 grams of onions (diced) equals 72.00 tsp. Onions (diced) has a density of 160g per cup. Because grams measure weight and teaspoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 240 grams of onions (diced)
- 1 cup of onions (diced) = 160g
- 240g ÷ 160g/cup = 1.5 cups × 48 = 72.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
The weight of diced produce per cup depends on how finely it is cut. Smaller dice packs more tightly and weighs more per cup than large chunks.

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?
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.
