200 grams of salt in cups
200 g ÷ 288 g per cup = 0.694 cups
A cup of salt weighs 288 g, so 200 g fills 0.69 cups — about ⅔ cup. Going this direction is the one most worth doing with a scale rather than a cup: measuring about ⅔ cup accurately by eye is hard, and weighing 200 g is not. The source line is "1 tablespoon = 18 g", from King Arthur Baking.
Salt and leaveners are where a volume measure hurts most, because the brands differ from each other and not just from table salt. A tablespoon of table salt is 18 g, of Morton's kosher 16 g, of Diamond Crystal kosher 8 g — half. A recipe developed with one and made with another is seasoned wrong.
