15 g1 tablespoon
Hung yoghurt density about 1.02 g/ml; 4.93 ml tsp gives 5.0 g.
Instead of Hung natural yoghurt or chhena
Hung natural yoghurtUse the same weight for yoghurt-style uses. It will not behave like chhena in sweets that need crumbly fresh cheese.
Cottage cheeseUse the same weight, crumbled or mashed. It suits sweets and stuffings better than yoghurt.
PaneerUse the same weight, finely grated. It is denser and less moist, so add a spoon of milk if the mixture feels dry.
