Equivalent Measurements For Herbs & Spices
I made these charts, printed them out, and put them inside one of my favorite cookbooks because I could never remember (and could never find easily) these equivalent measurements when I needed them. I hope you’ll find these charts helpful too. This chart is for herbs and spices.
| Ingredient | Approximate Equivalent Measurements | |
|---|---|---|
| Garlic (1 large clove) | 1 1/2 teaspoons, minced | 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
| Garlic (1 small clove) | 1/2 teaspoon, minced | 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder |
| Garlic Salt | 1 teaspoon | 1/8 tsp garlic powder plus 7/8 tsp salt |
| Garlic | 1 1/2 teaspoons, minced | 1 large clove |
| Garlic | 1/2 teaspoon, minced | 1 small clove |
| Ginger (Fresh) | 1 tablespoon, grated or chopped | 1-inch piece |
| Ginger (Ground) | 1/2 teaspoon | 1 teaspoon fresh, chopped |
| Herbs (Fresh) | 1 tablespoon, chopped | 1/2 teaspoon, dried, crushed |
| Parsley | 1/2 tablespoon, chopped | 1 sprig fresh |

Thanks so much for posting this! I prefer to use garlic cloves, but don’t really feel like running to the store right now , and I have garlic powder in the cabinet.
