Are coriander and cilantro the same thing?

Yes. Cilantro is another name for coriander, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A teaspoon of coriander weighs 0.32 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.

What is 100g of coriander in ounces?

100 grams of coriander is 3.5 ounces.

Use the weight converter to switch between grams, ounces, pounds, and kilograms for any amount.

How much does a teaspoon of coriander weigh?

1 teaspoon of coriander in grams is 0.32 grams. The ratio is fixed, so 2 teaspoons is 0.64 grams and half a teaspoon is 0.16 grams.

Coriander Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert coriander from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.

Coriander here means fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), the herb scattered over curries, salsas, and noodle bowls. One metric cup (250 ml) of loosely packed leaves weighs about 16 grams or 0.56 ounces. When a recipe lists coriander by the cup but you bought a bunch, converting by weight keeps the amount on track.

The delicate leaves are light and airy, so a cup of coriander weighs far less than denser herbs and varies with packing. Weighing in grams gives a steadier result for salsas, chutneys, and garnishes.

Measurement Options

Choose from the following measurements to convert from

Related to Coriander

Parsley

Parsley (60 g/cup) is much heavier than coriander (16 g/cup), so measure by volume, not weight. Parsley is mild and grassy where coriander is citrusy and bold, so the flavour shifts noticeably. Best for salads, green juices, and tabbouleh-style dishes; skip when the citrus-floral character of coriander is the point. See our Parsley converter.

Mint

Mint is another fresh herb measured by the cup, sweeter and more cooling than coriander. They suit different dishes, so treat any swap as a flavour change. See our Mint converter.
