SwitchExplanation
This page converts grams of turmeric into teaspoons using the teaspoon measure tied to the same ingredient density. Since 1 teaspoon is 1/48 of a US cup, spoon and cup estimates stay on the same basis.
That is useful when a recipe is written by weight but your kitchen workflow still uses spoons. That is especially useful for rubs, spice blends, and recipe scaling where small spoon measures add up quickly. Turmeric can vary with grind size and how loosely it fills a spoon or cup, so the page keeps one fixed basis for repeatable reference use.
