How many grams in a glass: a convenient table of measures and weights of products in grams

When preparing almost any dish, we measure the number of necessary ingredients in our usual ways, be it a glass, a cup or a spoon. And everything would be fine, but glasses and cups are not the same for everyone, and in many recipes the weight of the desired product in grams is indicated.

In such cases, an indispensable thing is a measuring cup, which indicates the number of milliliters for various kinds of liquids, and the weight in grams for dry products. Even with this useful kitchen appliance, it is not unreasonable to know the volume of utensils most often used in cooking.

In a teaspoon is placed 5 ml of water, a tablespoon is three times more, that is, 15 ml; The familiar glass for everyone , also called "Stalinist" or "Soviet", can be of two kinds - with a smooth rim and without it. A glass with a rim is considered a tea glass, because it is in it that conductors in trains carried tea along the car, the volume of this glass is 250 ml; The same glass, but without a rim - 200 ml.

It is important to remember that the volume of dishes is not always equal to the weight of the product. For sample data, a table of measures and weights of products may be useful. In grams, many dry products weigh much less than their volume in milliliters.

The tables below offer a weight equivalent of volume in grams, breaking down food products into convenient subcategories.

Note: The table of measures and product weights in grams is designed taking into account the filling of dishes as follows:

• Spoon - with a small slide;
• Glass - to the brim;
• Bank - up to the neck.

Loose products

This type includes cereals, sugar, salt, flour and some others. Table measures the weight of bulk products offers the basic methods of measuring - a spoon and a glass, dividing them into several types, according to the volume. For convenience of preparation of the big portions have been added banks in volume in a half-liter and liter.

Always carefully read the recipe - one cup of flour does not mean 200 g of flour, even if your cup is slightly larger than 200 ml. Remember that in the "Stalin" tea cup, filled to the brim, only 160 g of flour.

Note: If you do not have a traditional faceted glass in your kitchen , it can be replaced with a plastic one. A standard transparent disposable glass made of polypropylene contains exactly 200 ml of water.

Spices and additives (ground)

Since in the preparation of most spice dishes you need a little, their main yardsticks are a tea and a tablespoon. For convenience, a dessert spoon with a standard volume of 10 ml was added. Measures of the weight of products in spoons are not equivalent to their volume.

The weight of most spices and additives depends on the grind and the quality of the product. For example, coarsely ground coffee will weigh slightly more than fine coffee.

Note:

• The table of measures and weights of products in grams does not guarantee absolutely accurate weight, because the consistency and size of many products are not always the same.
• Very often spices are measured in pinch, in one pinch about a quarter teaspoon.

Liquids

Liquids are almost always measured in milliliters, which makes cooking much easier, since it is enough to know the volume of dishes in which products are usually measured. In the case when liquid prescriptions are measured in grams, their weight is as close as possible to the volume.

Solid products

Note: The presented table of measures and product weights in grams offers approximate data. The exact weight of the products depends on their size and type .

Products of viscous consistency

Consider the last version of the products.
