SwitchExplanation
This page answers the kitchen question in weight terms: how much 1 US cup of kosher salt weighs in ounces. It converts cup volume into weight ounces using one ingredient-specific factor instead of a generic chart.
It is measuring mass, not fluid ounces. That is especially useful for seasoning, brines, curing mixes, and baking recipes where salt type changes the weight behind the same spoon or cup measure. The mirror page uses the same ounce-per-cup conversion in reverse so both directions stay aligned.
