Understanding the Units

What is a Teaspoon?

One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.

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 10.00 g, based on greek yogurt having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 5.10 (grams per teaspoon for greek yogurt). For 1.96 teaspoons: 1.96 × 5.10 = 10.00 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh greek yogurt 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.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 10.00 g ÷ 5.10 = 1.96 teaspoons. Or use the Grams to Teaspoons converter.
