Sell two teaspoons. The ratio of mass and volume of products 2 tablespoons how many grams
Kitchen scales are a modern and convenient gadget for housewives. Indeed, some recipes require the most accurate proportions, up to grams, otherwise the dish may not work out.
Or the hostess could develop her ideal recipe over the years and would like to stick to it always exactly. This is especially true for confectionery and pastries.
If you do not observe the temperature regime and the exact proportions, then the result may not meet expectations, the cake may not be baked inside, and the bottom may burn, the cookies may turn out to be oak.
But what to do if you really want to cook according to a certain recipe, but there are no scales at hand. If measuring 250 ml of milk is quite realistic, many have 250-gram glasses in the kitchen, then how to measure, say, 150 g of flour? If you have to cook according to a new recipe, it is better to look for one where the proportions are already indicated in measured containers.
In addition to the standard faceted glass, products are measured with spoons, mugs, cups, bowls and many other containers. And there are also specialized measuring cups with divisions indicating the weight of the most common products and sets of measuring spoons for weighing small volumes.
But if, nevertheless, there are no scales or other measuring instruments in the kitchen, and there is no choice and you need to accurately measure the exact weight, then ingenuity, familiar kitchen containers and some knowledge about the ratio of weight and volume of products will come to the rescue.
Measuring a tablespoon of bulk products
It's time to find out how many grams are in a tablespoon of bulk products. "Liquid" products such as milk, water, butter are easy to measure with glasses. But bulk products can vary greatly in weight, and a glass of flour weighs significantly lighter than a glass of sugar.
And if you need to measure a little flour, for example, for sauces or cakes, then a glass will not work. A device for measuring small weight, which everyone has at home for sure, is an ordinary tablespoon. This refers to a standard spoon, its volume corresponds to the volume of 3 teaspoons.
So how do you measure exactly 150 g of flour with a spoon? Flour in a tablespoon will be 15 g, this is already known, so 150 g of flour is 10 tablespoons. It is believed that a standard tablespoon has an average capacity of 15 g of dry product and 18 ml of liquid. But in fact, the weight of the products that fit in a tablespoon varies greatly. For comparison:
- salt - 30 g;
- sugar - 25 g;
- rice - 25 g;
- dry yeast - 12 g.
There are no exact formulas for how to measure the weight of a product, they have already been measured and recorded, and the hostess just needs to remember or write down these measurements.
The product must be measured exclusively in its raw form, if 100 g of rice is indicated, then it means dry rice, not even washed yet.
To scoop up with a slide or not?
When measuring dry and viscous products, be sure to pay attention to whether the spoon is filled with a slide or the top is cut off to a flat surface. Usually, if the recipe indicates the proportions in tablespoons and does not indicate “with a slide” or “without a slide”, the default is “with a slide”.
How many grams are in a heaping tablespoon? It happens that the weight is indicated “without a slide” and “with a slide” through a slash, on average the difference is 5 g. For example: 
- flour - 10/15 g;
- gelatin 10/15 g;
- spices 10/15 g;
- rice 15/20 g;
- oatmeal 15/20.
The slide should not be very large, just picking up with a spoon you do not need to shake it off. Interestingly, in English-language recipes, the default is “no slide”. You need to know this, because it’s hard for some to scoop without a slide, for this you need to “cut off” the top with a knife.
Correspondence table of measures
It is impossible to keep all these numbers in your head. And if there is no way to weigh, then you need to measure. Therefore, it is best to save and print such a table. If she is always in the kitchen, in plain sight, then there will be no problem converting the weight of the contents of the spoon into grams. So, we look in the table, how many grams are in 1 tablespoon of certain products:
| Name | weight in a tablespoon, grams |
| water | 18 |
| table vinegar | 20 |
| live shivers | 20 |
| vegetable oil | 17 |
| honey | 35 |
| sour cream | 22 |
| buckwheat | 22 |
| oatmeal groats | 12 |
| semolina | 25 |
| sago groats | 20 |
| coffee | 20 |
| soda | 28 |
| ground pepper | 18 |
| breadcrumbs | 15 |
| cocoa | 20 |
| peas | 25 |
| beans | 30 |
| gelatin powder | 15 |
| raisin | 25 |
| butter | 25 |
| condensed milk | 30 |
| milk | 17 |
| grated cheese | 8 |
| tomato paste | 30 |
| lemon acid | 25 |
| fresh berries | 30 |
| dried berries | 20 |
| crushed nuts | 30 |
Many probably remember such tables from their grandmothers and mothers in the kitchen. And despite the fact that today is the 21st century in the yard, they are still relevant, because every time it’s not very convenient to look at the Internet with hands soiled in flour or oil.
Determining the exact weight of products without scales is not so difficult
Every experienced housewife should have her own secrets and tricks. Knowing some more of them, it will not be so difficult to determine the weight of any products without weights and navigate in any recipes.
But even pharmaceutical accuracy in the quantity of products and precisely selected temperature is not a guarantee of a culinary masterpiece. There are many more factors that can play, such as the quality of products, dishes and, most importantly, a good mood. It has long been noticed that starting to cook in a bad mood, it is easy to spoil any dish.
The following video clearly demonstrates how many grams of flour are in a tablespoon.
We measured the weight of the "kitchen rock salt» GOST R 51574-2000 grade one. It is produced from the salt deposits of the ancient sea "created over millions of years by nature itself."
In other words, we took ordinary cheap coarse salt, which by default is implied in various culinary and other recipes.
Cheap salt often cakes, forming strong lumps that greatly affect weight. Experimentally, we found out that when dosing salt with a glass or spoon, you should definitely crush lumps with a diameter of more than 5 mm, otherwise the real weight will be more than indicated on the site.
How much does a spoon or glass of salt weigh?
Tea room with a slide
Tea spoon salt " with a slide» weighs 12 gram.
To get that much salt in a teaspoon, you need to scoop up greedily, and then shake off the excess that threatens to fall.
Usually, after scooping, salt has the shape of a very steep and crumbling rock, which greatly changes its height and, therefore, its mass from scooping to scooping. It is this “changing” rockiness that should be shaken off or cut off, leaving a gentle and neat hill, as in the photo.
Tablespoon salt with a mound» weighs 21-22 grams.
To collect so much salt in a tablespoon, you need to scoop up and then shake off the excess to such an extent that this spoon can be comfortably carried from room to room without spilling a crumb.
Since scales are not always available at home, the dosage of products is given in tea and faceted glasses, a tablespoon and a teaspoon.
How many grams are in a tablespoon and a teaspoon? How many grams of flour are in a glass? How many grams of salt or sugar are in a tablespoon or teaspoon? From the table you will learn that in one tablespoon there are 30 grams of salt and 25 grams of sugar. And in one faceted glass 200 grams and 200 ml of water. And in one glass - 100-130 grams of flour and 18 grams of sugar.
Below is the approximate weight (grams) of some products in these volumes.

It is advisable, using scales or a beaker, to measure out the capacity of glasses and spoons with water. As can be seen from the table, there should be 250 g (ml) of water in a tea glass, 200 g in a faceted glass, 18 g in a tablespoon, and 5 g in a teaspoon.
If the dishes have a different capacity, you should try to choose the dishes of the desired capacity, which will serve as a constant measure for all products.
Liquid products (milk, vegetable oil) need to fill glasses and spoons completely.
Viscous products (sour cream, condensed milk, jam) should be put into glasses and scooped with a spoon so that a "slide" is formed.
The same applies to bulk products. Flour should be poured into glasses, since when scooping it up by immersing a glass in a bag of flour, voids will form inside the glass along the walls due to the air remaining in it.
It is necessary to fill the dishes with bulk products without tamping and without shaking, and also without preliminary loosening. This is especially true for flour. So, flour in a tea glass normally filled with a "slide" weighs 160 g, and tamped - up to 210 g, pre-sifted - only 125 g. As a result, bulk products must be measured for the preparation of products in an unsifted form, and then sieved. The dishes filled with flour are shown in the figure.
On a note In recipes, to reduce the presentation, it is written not "faceted glass", but "glass".
In recipes, to reduce the presentation, it is written not "faceted glass", but "glass".
When the humidity and the state of the product deviate from the norm, its weight in the same volume changes. So, fermenting sour cream is lighter than fresh, non-fermenting; sugar and salt with high humidity is heavier than normal.
Silver, casting, engraving
Late 19th century
Russia
Silverware is made in special ways, which can be easy or complex depending on the design of the model. In this case, the two precious spoons are made by casting, which is the process of filling a mold with molten metal. Such a process is very painstaking and takes a long time to achieve the final result. These spoons are treated with fire before the solidification process. In this way, a workpiece is obtained, which is then processed, ground, cut or engraved.
You can easily sell silver in our Aurora club. To do this, come to our offices or contact us by phone.
The appearance of silver spoons took place in Rus' back in 988. Then they were made for Prince Vladimir the Red Sun. It is very interesting that the products were rarely used then, more used as talismans.
Time began to change the shape of the spoon. It changed from round to more oblong, oval. Rich and noble people considered themselves special, so they began to make spoons with a sharp nose separately for them.
Distinctive features of antique tea spoons:
- The engraving, which is made on the spoons, gives them a unique characteristic look.
- Made at the end of the 19th century, which makes them valuable from an antique point of view.
- Pointed handle at the end.
Time is poorly displayed on any objects. They require special care, especially if it is a family heirloom or unique items of the past.
You can sell two teaspoons on our website. We accept all antique goods and guarantee decent payment for it.
Purchase of antiques is made only after evaluation in any of the offices of our company. We do not buy gold watches, fur coats, sewing machines, furniture, samovars, mobile phones and gold crowns! The indicated prices are for office storage items.
When women find another culinary recipe for their piggy bank from the Internet, a magazine, a book, or on the advice of a friend, they first of all turn their attention to the list of products needed to prepare the dish, and only then to the proportions.
The dosage of bulk and solid products is indicated in grams or measured with spoons, glasses.
It is believed that a real housewife can measure the dosage of products "by eye", but not everyone succeeds and it's not worth the risk, because you can ruin the dish.
How many grams of spices does a spoon and a glass hold
Of course, the easiest way to measure the quantity and weight of ingredients is with a modern kitchen scale. But what to do when there is no scale or measuring cup at hand, and in the recipe all the ingredients are indicated in grams and milliliters?
To make the dish tasty, it is necessary to take into account the dosage of salt, sugar, various spices and other components.
In this case, teaspoons, tablespoons and an ordinary (thin-walled, faceted) glass come to the rescue.
How to measure correctly?
For example: a glass is indicated in the recipe, so we measure with a glass; if a spoon, use a teaspoon or a tablespoon; if the ingredients are indicated in grams, we measure by weights; if in milliliters, then use a measuring cup.
Pour liquid components to the edges of the spoon, viscous - with a slide. To determine the correct proportions, you can use the table of product weights.
It is important if 1 teaspoon of sugar is indicated - this means that a spoonful of sugar with a small slide. Other recipes prescribe "1 small spoonful of sugar without a slide" - accordingly, it is necessary, without a slide.

How many grams are in a glass
How much a glass holds depends on its shape and size. In cooking, 2 types are usually used: thin-walled (250 ml), faceted (200 ml).
Their difference is in volume, so the weight of the products is different. In a glass with a "slide" fits: 11 large spoons of cereals or 10 large spoons of salt and sugar.
Do you know why many housewives do not include millet in their diet? The answer is simple - they do not know how to cook it properly. It's a pity! Just a few tricks and millet porridge will always be welcomed by your household. Learn!
Do you think that draniki are simple potato cakes? No! There are many recipes and some of them you can look at, choose and cook.
Here they are, the cherished fat-burning products ... especially for you from our experts!
Tip: if the recipe required flour dosed in a glass, then it is important not to scoop it up with a glass, but pour it into a glass with a spoon, since when scooping up, voids may remain in the glass and there will be a shortage in grams.
And sift the flour only after you have measured the right amount for culinary use.
When sifted, the flour takes in oxygen and does not lie down tightly. For convenience, it is better to use the table for determining the weight of products.
