Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 02030: “Spices, pepper, black”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 tsp, ground = 2.3g
  • 1 tbsp, ground = 6.9g
  • 1 tsp, whole = 2.9g
  • 1 dash = 0.1g

Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. Metric-cup figures assume a 250ml cup, and Australian tablespoons hold 20ml. Weights under 10g are rounded to 0.1g, everything else to the nearest gram. Full source list.
