  • A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more. When tablespoon size matters
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

Black-eyed peas are small, cream-coloured beans with a dark eye, central to Southern dishes like Hoppin' John and to many stews and salads. One metric cup (250 ml) of cooked, drained black-eyed peas weighs around 175 grams or 6.17 ounces. When a recipe lists them in cups but you are cooking from dried or a can, converting by weight keeps the ratio right.

Dried black-eyed peas roughly double in weight once cooked, and a can drains to about 240 g, while recipes mix cups, grams, and cans. Weighing in grams keeps the bean ratio steady.
