Frequently Asked Questions
- What is 1 teaspoon of basmati rice in ounces?
- 1 teaspoon of basmati rice is 0.14 ounces. The ratio is fixed, so 2 teaspoons of basmati rice is 0.28 ounces and 0.5 teaspoons is 0.07 ounces. Use the converter above for any quantity, or check the conversion chart on this page for the most common amounts at a glance. Open the basmati rice converter
- Is 1 cup of cooked basmati rice the same weight as 1 cup of dry basmati rice?
- No. One cup of cooked basmati rice weighs about 165 g, while one cup of dry basmati rice weighs 200 g. They are different states: dry rice soaks up water and swells to roughly 4.17 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
