Teaspoon salt measurement

A teaspoon measurement for salt is a standard unit used in cooking to quantify a small, specific amount. One teaspoon is approximately 5 milliliters in volume. When measuring salt, a teaspoon generally holds about 6 grams of fine table salt, though this can vary slightly with the salt's coarseness or grain size. This measurement helps ensure consistency and accuracy in recipes, balancing flavor and preventing over-salting. Using standard measuring spoons ensures that the amount of salt added is precise, leading to reliable results in your cooking and baking.
