How Egg White Converter Works?
The Egg White Converter works by dividing grams of egg white by 5.15 g per US teaspoon. One large egg white weighs about 30–33 g, close to 2 tbsp.
Separate cleanly
Separate whites with no yolk. A trace of fat stops whites from whipping.
Whisk lightly
Break up the white with a fork so it pours and divides evenly.
Enter grams
Type the weight, such as 15 g for half a white in a small batch.
Egg White Converter Formula
The Egg White Converter formula is teaspoons = grams of egg white ÷ 5.15.
tsp = g ÷ 5.15 | 1 tbsp = 15.45 g | 1 large white ≈ 30–33 g
- 30 g of egg white ÷ 15.45 = 1.94 tbsp, about 2 tbsp.
- 15 g of egg white ÷ 5.15 = 2.91 tsp, about 1 tbsp.
- 4 large whites (120 g) ÷ 15.45 = 7.77 tbsp, about ½ cup.
