How to convert grams of table salt to teaspoons
One level teaspoon of table salt weighs about 6 g (1/48 of a 288 g cup). 7 ÷ 6 = 1.17 teaspoons, or 0.39 tablespoons.
Kosher and flaky salts are much lighter per spoon than fine table salt, so swap them by weight, not by volume.

Frequently asked questions
How many teaspoons is 7 grams of table salt?

Almost. US and UK tablespoons hold about 15 ml and teaspoons about 5 ml. Australia is the exception: an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml (4 teaspoons), so use ¾ of an Australian tablespoon to match a US one.
Should I weigh table salt or measure it by volume?
Kosher and flaky salts are much lighter per spoon than fine table salt, so swap them by weight, not by volume. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
