How Much Is 9.38 Teaspoons of Cornstarch in Grams?
9.38 teaspoons of cornstarch equals 25.01 g. Cornstarch has a density of 128g per cup (2.67g per teaspoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 9.38 teaspoons of honey would be 66.44 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 9.38 teaspoons of cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon of cornstarch = 2.67g
- 9.38 × 2.67 = 25.01g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Humidity affects cornstarch weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

Understanding the Units
What is a Teaspoon?
A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 4.929 milliliters or 1/3 of a tablespoon. It is the standard measure for spices, leaveners, extracts, and other small-quantity ingredients.
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.
