Frequently Asked Questions

About 50.00 g, based on parmesan (finely grated) having a density of 80g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 1.67 (grams per teaspoon for parmesan (finely grated)). For 30 teaspoons: 30 × 1.67 = 50.00 g.
