Where these numbers come from
USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 02003: “Spices, basil, dried”. USDA lists these household measures for it:
- 1 tsp, leaves = 0.7g
- 1 tbsp, leaves = 2.1g
- 1 tsp, ground = 1.4g
- 1 tbsp, ground = 4.5g
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.
