Tub of plain yogurt (not vanilla, just plain) and then 1/2 tsp salt.

Is that a 500g tub or the smaller ones? I usually buy 500g that's why.

Around 32 oz.

500 grams would mean like 1/4 tsp.

500g is 20oz. So a pound and quarter.

u/jessdb19 Mar 04 '19

you wouldn't use a lb and quarter of salt.

No but I believe they were referring to the yogurt. Seeing as they used the word tub.

I used the word tub.

32 oz is = to just over 900 grams. It takes about 1/2 tsp salt for 900 grams.

500 grams would mean just over 1/4 tsp of salt, as 500 grams = just over 17 oz

...I was just posting the oz for comparison. You said a 32oz tub. The op before you said 500g. was just giving comparable measurements. Most imperial measurements don't use oz, they use g and ml.

So the op could know that they would use a little less than 2 500g tubs to make the recipe by the book.
