}Explanation
This converter is intended for ground cardamom measured with a level teaspoon. Whole pods, loose seeds, and coarsely crushed cardamom occupy a different volume and should not be treated as interchangeable with fine ground spice.
Multiply level teaspoons by 2.1 grams. The fixed spoon basis is useful for spice blends and recipe scaling, while an actual scale remains preferable for production batches.
Cardamom uses a reviewed reference of 102 grams per US cup in this dataset. Evidence status: low-confidence. Source basis: and1 ingredient weight chart: 1 cup cardamom = 102 g https://www.and1.com/measurements/cups-in-gram/
Whole versus ground form, grind size, settling, and leveling are important because these concentrated ingredients are commonly measured in small volumes.
Reference & Scope
Ingredient form matters: this reference is for ground cardamom, not whole pods or uncompacted seeds.
- Values are calculated from one explicit conversion basis.
- Displayed results are rounded only after the underlying calculation.
- Real measured materials and ingredients can vary from the stated reference basis.
