- Is 1 cup of cooked arborio rice the same weight as 1 cup of dry arborio rice?
- No. One cup of cooked arborio rice weighs about 200 g, while one cup of dry arborio rice weighs 220 g. They are different states: dry rice soaks up water and swells to roughly 3.11 times its volume as it cooks, so a single dry cup makes several cooked cups. Cooking changes the weight per cup, so the dry and cooked gram figures are not interchangeable. Use the cooked rice converter to switch between dry and cooked amounts. Open the cooked rice converter
