15 grams of dried food is equivalent to about 1 tablespoon. So, 50 g of fresh herbs is equal to 3 generous tablespoons.
One teaspoon of dried basil is equal to 1 Tablespoon of fresh basil. This ratio is the same for all fresh and dried herbs.
Measuring dried herbs to fresh herbs are easy. All you have to remember is 1 teaspoon of dry herbs equals one tablespoon of fresh herbs.
1 teaspoon ground = 1 tablespoon fresh. Ground or dried herbs are actually stronger than their fresh counterparts.
General rule of thumb is 1/2 the amount of dried herbs. So 1/8 of a cup of dried basil is equal to 1/4 cup fresh
1/3
When using dry herbs versus fresh herbs, a good rule of thumb is to use 1 portion of dry herbs for every 3 portions of fresh herbs. So, one tsp of dried tarragon would be the equivalent to 3 tsps. of fresh tarragon.
Herbs and spices (like ginger) have so few calories that they are essentially counted as being "calorie free". It is usually less than 5 calories per serving.
Well, honey, let me tell you straight - 1 teaspoon of dried oregano leaves is equivalent to about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of ground oregano. But let's be real, who actually measures that precisely when cooking? Just sprinkle in what feels right and trust your taste buds to guide you.
In general, dried herbs are stronger than fresh herbs and it may be safe to say 2 tsp. of dried herbs equals 4 tsp. of fresh herbs.
One tbsp of fresh coriander would be one teaspoon of dried and vice-versa. That is a three to one ratio. This formula works for all herbs. Just remember 1tbsp fresh = 1 tsp. dried. Packaged dried herbs are stronger than fresh herbs, but lose their potency as they age. If the container is new then use a bit more sparingly. Fresh herbs are the way to go to get the best results.
I use nearly the same ratio to substitute for most herbs. 3 to 1. You want one third the amount of dried as the amount of fresh that is called for. That would be approximately 1 teaspoon of dried to one tablespoon of fresh, or 1/3 cup of dried for your 1 cup of fresh. However, it also depends on how fresh your dried herbs are. Fresher dried herbs will have a stronger flavor and you may be able to use less. Older dried herbs will have a weaker flavor and may require more. If the parsley is to be used as a garnish, I wouldn't substitute dried.
