Ground clove
Laung
2.1 g1 teaspoon
6 g1 tablespoon
Standard ground clove: 1 tsp ≈2.1 g.
Instead of Ground clove
Nothing truly replaces clove’s sharp, medicinal pungency; allspice is the closest.
Ground allspiceUse 1.5–2 times the weight; it has a similar warm pungency but is milder and rounder, so the dish loses clove’s sharp medicinal heat.
Ground cinnamon (cassia)Use the same weight; it gives warmth but is sweeter and lacks clove’s strength, so use only if the amount is small.
