Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 1 cup of lentils?

1 US cup of lentils weighs 192 g, as measured by the USDA (1 cup (raw)). A tablespoon weighs 12 g.

How do I convert grams of lentils to cups?

Divide the grams by 192. For example, 100 g of lentils is 0.52 cups, about 1/2 cup.

Is a US cup the same as a metric cup?

No. A US cup is 236.6 ml and a metric cup (Australia, Canada, New Zealand) is 250 ml, so a metric cup of an ingredient weighs about 5–6% more than the US weights here.

Why weigh instead of using cups?

How you fill a cup changes how much goes in: scooped flour packs down, spooned flour stays loose. Weighing gives the same amount every time, which matters most for baking.
