How many teaspoons in 5 grams of baking powder?
You can't directly convert grams of baking powder to teaspoons. Here's why:
* Density: Baking powder is a powder, and its density can vary depending on the brand, how finely it's ground, and how it's packed.
* Different Ingredients: Baking powder isn't a pure substance. It's a mixture of ingredients (like baking soda, acid, and cornstarch).
Instead of converting grams to teaspoons, use a measuring spoon!
* Use a 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon. This is the most common size for baking powder.
* Level the spoon off with a straight edge. This ensures you get the correct amount.
If you absolutely need an estimate:
* A rough estimate is that 1 teaspoon of baking powder weighs approximately 3-4 grams.
* This means 5 grams of baking powder is roughly equivalent to 1 1/2 to 1 2/3 teaspoons.
It's always best to use a measuring spoon for accuracy in baking.
