Convert four grams of hot pepper sauce into oz?

Answer 1

See the link at GourmetSleuth for an online converter. Here is the logic behind it. A thousand grams is a kilogram, and there are 2.2 pounds in a kilogram. So a pound is 454 grams. There is an old saying, "A pint's a pound the world around." That would be a pint of water. Assuming the hot pepper sauce is about as dense as water, we would find the pint equivalent as 4 gm / 454 gm = 0.008811 pounds. Multiplying by 16 oz per pound, we get 0.008811 pounds x 16 oz/pound = 0.14 oz Remembering that 1 ounce is 2 tablespoons or 6 teaspoons, we could multiply 0.14 oz x 2 tablespoons/ounce = 0.28 TBS or 0.14 ozx 6 teaspoons/oz = .85 tsp. If it were me, I'd use 3/4 tsp to 1 tsp, depending on how hot I like it.
