Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of ingredients.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 49.91 g, based on nutmeg having a density of 112g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 7 (grams per tablespoon for nutmeg). For 7.13 tablespoons: 7.13 × 7 = 49.91 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh nutmeg 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.
