How much does 1 cup kosher salt weigh in grams?

Answer 1

It depends on the brand of kosher salt and the size of the flake. Morton Kosher salt weighs about 5oz per cup. Diamond Crystal closer to 8oz. Unless you know the brand of kosher salt the recipe calls for, you should always add salt by weight.Standard table salt contains 2300mg of sodium. Salt is about 40% sodium by weight. There fore a teaspoon of table salt weighs 6 grams.So whenever a recipe calls for a teaspoon of salt, you should assume it needs 6 grams.If a recipe calls for a teaspoon of kosher salt, and doesn't tell you what brand; you either need a different recipe, or you need to query the person who wrote it to ask them what they used.

One teaspoon of Morton Kosher Salt weighs 6 grams. (I went at this the old fashioned way: with a teaspoon measure and a scale.)

Answer 2

5 (Diamond) to 7.5 (Morton) ounces, depending upon the brand.

Answer 3

The density of different salts differs, meaning that the weight of one cup is not the same for all types. One cup of Kosher salt generally weighs about 6.4 ounces.

Answer 4

Approx. 355 g but this depends on the apparent density.

Answer 5

Approx. 150 salt if the cup has 237 mL.

Answer 6

6 OZ
