4 tsp of dried rosemary equals 1/4 cup fresh.
Converting fresh to dried herbs is always 3x as much fresh as dried OR 1/3 as much dried as fresh. For example, 1 tsp. dried can be replaced by 3 tsp. fresh (which equals 1 Tbl. fresh). Conversely, if 1 Tbl. fresh is requested, 1 tsp. dried can be used instead.
Approximately one teaspoon of dried rosemary equals one tablespoon of fresh. (Approx. 1 tsp dry = 1 Tbsp fresh)

The rule of thumb here is that one teaspoon of dried herb equals one tablespoon of fresh.
When herbs are dried, the oils which create the flavor and aroma are concentrated in the material that remains when the water is removed. Dried herbs are therefore stronger than fresh ones. Try using half as much dried as fresh or twice as much fress as dried and adjust to taste. Specifically two tablespoons of dried equals one quarter cup fresh,

For rosemary, the ratio is three to one, fresh chopped to dried. So if your recipe calls for 2 tsp. of dried rosemary and you would rather use fresh, you will need three times as much, or two tablespoons of fresh chopped rosemary leaves.
