Primer

These category tables convert volume to mass using ingredient-specific densities. Use weight for precision; volume varies with packing, cut, and temperature.

Methodology

  • Density references are summarized from U.S. government sources (USDA FoodData Central, USDA FNDDS) and lab-standard data when available.
  • Conversions keep higher-precision intermediates and round to practical kitchen values.
  • Default volume is the US cup unless a page explicitly uses metric or UK standards.

Unit standards

  • Mass: grams (g).
  • Volume: mL, US cup, tbsp, tsp.
  • Assumed temperature: room temperature unless stated otherwise.

Examples and edge cases

  • Raw vs cooked vegetables change water content (USDA FDC).
  • Chopped vs whole pieces change packing (USDA FDC).
  • Frozen vs fresh can shift moisture and mass (USDA FDC).
