Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 4.27g/tsp = grams
  1. Start with 3.84 teaspoons of lard
  2. 1 teaspoon of lard = 4.27g
  3. 3.84 × 4.27 = 16.4g

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

Measuring Tip

For the most accurate results, weigh lard on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements of solid fats vary depending on how firmly they are packed.

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?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 16.40 g, based on lard having a density of 205g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 4.27 (grams per teaspoon for lard). For 3.84 teaspoons: 3.84 × 4.27 = 16.40 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh lard 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: 16.40 g ÷ 4.27 = 3.84 teaspoons. Or use the Grams to Teaspoons converter.
