SwitchExplanation
This page starts from weight ounces and estimates cups for salt using the same ounce-per-cup conversion as the mirror page. That keeps the forward and reverse routes numerically aligned.
It is useful when a recipe or label gives ounces by weight but prep is measured in cups. 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. 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.
