Explanation
This page handles the reverse question for sea salt: starting from weight and estimating US cups. It uses the same cup conversion basis as the mirror page, only in reverse.
That keeps gram-based recipes and cup-based prep aligned to one explicit assumption. 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. Very small gram amounts are too little to measure reliably in a cup, so cup measuring only becomes practical at larger weights. 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.
