How Much Is 0.21 Teaspoons of Mayonnaise in Grams?
0.21 teaspoons of mayonnaise weighs 0.96 g. This is based on mayonnaise having a density of 220g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.21 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.21 teaspoons of mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise = 4.58g
- 0.21 × 4.58 = 0.96g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mayonnaise should be spooned into the measuring spoon and leveled off. Do not scoop directly from the jar, which traps air.

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.
