Salt Measurement Converter

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

Salt is the most common seasoning in cooking and baking, sharpening flavour and helping control yeast and gluten in bread doughs. One metric cup (250 ml) of fine table salt weighs around 300 grams. Most recipes call for it by the teaspoon, so a quick gram or teaspoon conversion is usually all you need.

Salt crystal size varies a lot: a teaspoon of flaky sea salt weighs far less than a teaspoon of fine table salt, so measuring by weight avoids over- or under-salting. This page converts salt between grams, teaspoons, tablespoons, and more.
