}Explanation
Convert weight ounces of table salt to fluid ounces with the same ingredient density reference used in reverse.
A weighed ingredient can therefore be measured as a pour or small liquid-style volume. 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. Table 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.
