Level and scrape
Fill the spoon, level with a knife and scrape clean.

The Mayonnaise Converter formula is teaspoons = grams of mayonnaise ÷ 4.65.
tsp = g ÷ 4.65 | 1 tbsp = 13.95 g | 1 US cup ≈ 223 g
- 30 g of mayonnaise ÷ 13.95 = 2.15 tbsp.
- 14 g of mayonnaise ÷ 4.65 = 3.01 tsp, 1 tbsp.
- ¼ cup of mayonnaise = 12 × 4.65 = 55.8 g.
