15 grams is how many teaspoons?

Answer 1

1 teaspoon is about 5 grams so 15 grams is about 3 tsp

A gram is an EXACT weight while a teaspoon is a visual one which depends on the DENSITY of the item being used.

I have table salt that says "fine salt" which states 1/4tsp serving size at 1.7g, making it 6.8g per tsp while I have another Mediterranean Sea salt that says 1g per 1/4tsp, making it 4g per tsp, and the Himalayan salt I have says 0.6g per 1/4tsp, making it 2.4g per tsp.

The package the salt came in should give you the serving size as 1/4tsp and then also have the weight in grams. Just multiply it by 4.

If the recipe calls for 15g of Himalayan salt, you would need about 6 tsp of it but if you tried putting 6tsp of "fine salt", you would end up with 40.8 grams of salt in your recipe.

It's like saying use 2 hands full of vegetables. Some may have hands that would barely hold 3-4 cups while others wouls be able to hold 10 cups. It is always bettwr to get a small scale if you are worried about using the exact amount, or easier, just look at the serving size on the package which almost always gives you the equivalent of 1/4tsp in grams, and then multiply it by 4.

Answer 2

It depends on the product density. 1 teaspoon of peanut butter and 1 teaspoon of water has different weights.

Answer 3

1.5 grams of water is approximately 1/4 of a teaspoon.
