about 5 grams or so depending on the brand and the humidity. Whoever answered "20 grams" was WAY off. It is less dense that table salt because it is fluffier.
It depends on the brand of kosher salt and the size of the flake. Morton Kosher salt weighs about 5oz per cup. Diamond Crystal closer to 8oz. Unless you know the brand of kosher salt the recipe calls for, you should always add salt by weight.Standard table salt contains 2300mg of sodium. Salt is about 40% sodium by weight. There fore a teaspoon of table salt weighs 6 grams.So whenever a recipe calls for a teaspoon of salt, you should assume it needs 6 grams.If a recipe calls for a teaspoon of kosher salt, and doesn't tell you what brand; you either need a different recipe, or you need to query the person who wrote it to ask them what they used.One teaspoon of Morton Kosher Salt weighs 6 grams. (I went at this the old fashioned way: with a teaspoon measure and a scale.)
Kosher salt is free of iodine, and additive-free.

No.
Some popular kosher salt brands available in the market include Diamond Crystal, Morton, and Jacobsen Salt Co.
I've been looking for this answer for myself, and found the following elsewhere on the web. I haven't tested it out though, so cannot speak to its accuracy: "As a general rule: one teaspoon of regular table salt equals two teaspoons of Diamond Crystal brand kosher salt or 1-1/2 teaspoons of Morton brand kosher salt. Sea salts can generally be used interchangeably with table salt, unless they're large flakes. In that case, "Salt to taste" is the best guide."
The densiity of kosher and table salt is NOT the same kosher is significantly less dense than table is because of the fluffier crystals.
This depends on the volume of the teaspoon (which is not a metrological device) and the apparent density of the salt; possible up to 3 g.
A good substitute for Morton Tender Quick when curing meat is a mixture of kosher salt and pink curing salt.
Since table salt is the stuff you can see and measure, it is useful to know that one teaspoon of table salt weighs about 6 g, or 6,000 mg. There are about 2.4 g sodium in one teaspoon salt. * this is from http://www.ultracycling.com/nutrition/hyponatremia2.html
It depends on the brand of kosher salt you will be using as it varies in strength. if you use Morton's Kosher salt use 2 cups to = 1 pound, or if you use Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt 3 cups to = 1 pound.
as sugar because if you measure it in grams sugar weighs more
