Explanation

This page answers the practical spoon question directly: how much 1 teaspoon of butter (unsalted) weighs in grams. It uses one ingredient-specific teaspoon factor derived from the same base cup assumption used across the family.

That makes the result more consistent than mixing generic spoon charts. That is especially useful for baking, pie crusts, traditional pastry, and savory doughs where the ingredient may be solid in the jar but measured as a liquid volume. Butter (Unsalted) changes behavior a lot between solid and melted states, so the page keeps one liquid-state basis instead of mixing scooped solids with poured volume.

Method & Spoon Basis

  • Method basis: teaspoon-to-weight conversion derived from 227 g per 1 US cup.
  • Applied formula: grams = teaspoons × 4.729.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
