Explanation

Convert polenta teaspoons to grams with an ingredient-specific teaspoon reference derived from the shared cup basis.

The gram result stays more consistent than a generic teaspoon chart. That is especially useful for batch cooking and portion planning, where coarse grain volume and weight need to stay aligned. Polenta can vary with grain coarseness and how the particles settle in the cup, so the page keeps one explicit basis for repeatable prep.

Method & Spoon Basis

  • Method basis: teaspoon-to-weight conversion derived from 163 g per 1 US cup.
  • Applied formula: grams = teaspoons × 3.396.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.

Direction calculation: Polenta — 1 US teaspoon equals 3.395833333 grams. Reference: 163 g/US cup. Source basis: King Arthur Ingredient Weight Chart (Polenta, coarse ground cornmeal: 1 cup = 163g)

Among the 35 reviewed records labeled Flours & Grains, the nearest factor to Polenta is Semolina at 163 g/cup: a difference of 0 g/cup (0.0% relative to Polenta). The observed range in this labeled group is Panko Breadcrumbs at 80 g/cup to Pearl Barley at 213 g/cup.

Particle size, aeration, settling, and whether the cup is scooped or spoon-filled can materially change the mass held by the same volume.
