A spoon of cinnamon (teaspoon, tablespoon) – how many grams and calories?

Real aromatic cinnamon can significantly change the taste of any dish (if required by the recipe), so it will be useful for many cooks and housewives to learn how to weigh cinnamon without scales in grams with just spoons. In the article we will tell you how many grams of ground cinnamon fit in a teaspoon and a tablespoon, find out what the weight of 1 cinnamon stick is and how many calories are contained in one spoon of ground cinnamon.

How to weigh cinnamon in grams without using spoons?

It is faster to measure cinnamon with heaped spoons (it weighs heavier), but for more accurate calculations it is better to weigh it with unheaped spoons (in most recipes, the weight of a spoonful of cinnamon is rounded to the following values: in a teaspoon = 3 grams, in a tablespoon = 8 grams):

• 50 grams of cinnamon = 6 tablespoons + half a teaspoon.
• 45 grams of cinnamon = 5 tablespoons + 2 tea.
• 40 grams of cinnamon = 5 tablespoons.
• 35 grams of cinnamon = 4 tablespoons + 1 tea.
• 30 grams of cinnamon = 3 tablespoons + 2 tea.
• 25 grams of cinnamon = 3 tablespoons.
• 20 grams of cinnamon = 2 tablespoons + 1.5 teaspoons.
• 15 grams of cinnamon = approximately 2 level tablespoons.
• 10 grams of cinnamon = 1 tablespoon + 0.5 teaspoon.
• 9 grams of cinnamon = 1 tablespoon with a small mound.
• 8 grams of cinnamon = 1 tablespoon.
• 7 grams of cinnamon = slightly less than 1 tablespoon.
• 6 grams of cinnamon = 2 teaspoons.
• 5 grams of cinnamon = 2 teaspoons (remove 1 pinch).
• 4 grams of cinnamon = 1 teaspoon + 1 pinch.
• 3 grams of cinnamon = 1 teaspoon.
• 2 grams of cinnamon = 1 teaspoon (remove 1 pinch).

How many grams are in a tablespoon table

If we talk about bulk products that are contained in a tablespoon, then we mean that they are collected level with the rim of the spoon. In some cases, a small slide is provided. If you want to find out how many grams are in a spoon of certain products, then refer to the table.

Bulk products

Liquid products

The table shows the weight of liquid products (in grams). What is taken into account here is that liquids are poured into a heaped spoon, and if the products are rarer, then they are poured to the edge of the spoon.

Citric acid

Many people are not aware of how widely this substance is used. Citric acid is added to desserts, drinks, mousses, meat marinades, sauces, and soups. A small amount gives a fresh, original taste to a dish, but if you add too much of this substance, you can ruin everything irrevocably. It is worth remembering the proportion and strictly observing it: 5 g of citric acid is placed in a teaspoon. The required amount of this substance is the secret of successful preservation and preparation of delicious dishes.

How many mg in a teaspoon

Incorrect proportions can change the taste of a dish for the worse, so the question of the amount of food is always relevant. Substances such as salt, seasonings, soda or baking powder in too large quantities can make food unfit for consumption. Special scales that can be used to determine the volume of a teaspoon in grams or measuring cups are not available in every kitchen. In addition, many recipes contain instructions with a list of ingredients in grams, because this is a standard measurement.

You can find out the amount of different substances from the table:

How many grams of spices can a spoon and glass hold?

Of course, the easiest way to measure the quantity and weight of ingredients is with a modern kitchen scale. But what to do when you don’t have a scale or measuring cup at hand, and all the ingredients in the recipe are indicated in grams and milliliters?

In this case, teaspoons, tablespoons and an ordinary (thin-walled, faceted) glass come to the rescue.

How to measure correctly?

For example: the recipe specifies a glass, so we measure with a glass; if it’s a spoon, use a teaspoon or a tablespoon; if the ingredients are indicated in grams, measure with a scale; if in milliliters, then use a measuring cup.

Pour liquid ingredients to the brim of the spoon, viscous ones - to the brim. To determine the correct proportions, you can use the food weights table.

It is important that if 1 teaspoon of sugar is indicated, this means a small heaped spoon of sugar. Other recipes prescribe “1 small spoon of sugar without a slide” - that’s how it should be, without a slide.

The importance of the correct dosage of spices in canning

When canning, hardly anyone can do without the help of a small or large spoon, since if you make an error in the dosage, there is a chance of losing the preparations. To avoid such situations, use the table indicating the number of grams in spoons.

Honey

This amazing beekeeping product is famous not only for its excellent taste, but also for its beneficial properties. In order not to spoil a dessert, sauce, drink, or marinade with honey, it is important to know the proportions of this substance. There is 9 g of honey in a teaspoon, provided that it is fresh and liquid. The specific gravity of the crystallized product will be different: the recipe must be adjusted. You can find out exactly how many grams are in a teaspoon of a particular type of product from special tables, but it is better to weigh the candied sweetness.

How many grams are in a teaspoon - table of different products

Almost all dishes have to be salted during the cooking process, and a small amount of sugar, flour, spices or vinegar must be added to add piquancy and emphasize the brightness of the taste. And, for example, the exact ratio of salt to the volume of the dish will allow you to create a bright flavor range, while avoiding over-salting or under-salting.

The most common ingredients that are most often measured in teaspoons are salt and sugar, so we would need to know how many grams they contain.

And again, the table will help you easily understand this issue. Download!

Measure of products: milk, dairy products, fats (in grams)

Tip: liquid foods must be filled into spoons full (heaped), otherwise there may be errors in weight.

Bulk products

It should be noted that a tablespoon as a measure of weight for various substances differs little in accuracy from the same mechanical or electronic devices that exist in a modern kitchen. To determine the weight of bulk products, two quantities are used:

• when the spoon is filled only to the brim (without a slide);
• when the maximum amount of food (with a slide) is placed in the spoon.

The cook himself chooses how to measure the required amount of a particular product, filling the spoon with a heap or not. It depends on exactly how many grams he needs for the dish he is preparing. Sometimes it is more convenient to take the weight with a slide for calculation, and in other cases - without it.
