}Explanation
Convert grams of quinoa to teaspoons with the teaspoon measure derived from the same ingredient density.
Since 1 teaspoon is 1/48 of a US cup, spoon and cup estimates use the same basis. That is especially useful for batch cooking and portion planning, where grain volume and weight need to stay aligned. Quinoa can vary with grain shape and how the grains settle in the cup, so the page keeps one explicit basis for repeatable prep.
