A pinch is a traditional cooking measurement equal to 1/16 of a teaspoon, roughly the amount you can pick up between your thumb and forefinger. It equals about 0.375 grams of salt.
No. A dash is larger than a pinch. A dash equals 1/8 teaspoon while a pinch equals 1/16 teaspoon, making a dash twice as large as a pinch.
One pinch of salt weighs approximately 0.375 grams (6 g per teaspoon ÷ 16 pinches per teaspoon).
Recipes use a pinch for very small amounts that add subtle flavor enhancement, such as a pinch of salt in cookies or desserts to balance sweetness.
