6 grams of salt equals how much of a teaspoon?

Answer 1

1 pound of salt is about 2 cups (US), and is 454 grams

1 cup is 48 teaspoons, so 2 is 96 tsp

454/ 96 = ~4.73 grams so that 6 grams would be about 1.27 tsp or roughly 1 1/4 tsp

an imperial teaspoon in british measure is 4% smaller than a US tsp, such that a tsp of salt is about 4.54 grams and 6 grams is much closer to 1 1/3 tsp

Answer 2

1 dash = 1/8 tsp

1 pinch = 1/16 tsp (1/2 dash)

1 smidgen = 1/32 tsp (1/4 dash)

1 nip = 1/64 tsp (1/8 dash)

Most measuring spoon sets come with a 1/8 teaspoon measure, however, there are special measuring spoons made if you need to accurately measure anything less than 1/8 teaspoon.
