SwitchExplanation
Use this page when a recipe gives rock salt in cups and you need a repeatable gram target. The converter keeps the assumption explicit: 1 level US cup of rock salt = 192 grams.
That makes recipe scaling easier without switching between inconsistent cup charts. The page stays anchored to the US cup standard (236.588 mL). Rock Salt can vary with crystal size and how tightly it settles, so fine, coarse, and kosher salts should not be treated as interchangeable by volume.
