SwitchExplanation
This page answers the practical spoon question directly: how much 1 teaspoon of sea salt weighs in grams. It uses one ingredient-specific teaspoon factor derived from the same base cup assumption used across the family.
That makes the result more consistent than mixing generic spoon charts. 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. Sea 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.
