Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 144g/cup × 48 = teaspoons
  1. Start with 108 grams of sesame seeds
  2. 1 cup of sesame seeds = 144g
  3. 108g ÷ 144g/cup = 0.75 cups × 48 = 36.00 teaspoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

For the most consistent results, weigh sesame seeds on a kitchen scale. Small seeds are easy to over-measure by volume.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 36.00 tsp, based on sesame seeds having a density of 144g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 144 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 48 to get teaspoons. For 108 grams: 108 ÷ 144 = 0.75 cups × 48 = 36.00 tsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh sesame seeds on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 36.00 tsp ÷ 48 = 0.75 cups, then 0.75 × 144g/cup = 108g. Or use the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
