Convert Chopped Onion measurements
Chopped Onion Measurement Converter
Use the tool below to convert chopped onion from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.
When a recipe calls for a cup of chopped onion and you would rather not guess, the gram weight keeps your prep on track. One metric cup (250 ml) of chopped onion weighs 160 g (5.64 oz). This converter moves between cups, grams, tablespoons, and more.
Chopped onion packs loosely or tightly depending on how fine you cut it, so the cup weight drifts. Measuring in grams keeps a soffritto, soup base, or curry consistent every time.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are chopped onion and diced onion the same thing?
- Yes. Diced onion is another name for chopped onion, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A cup of chopped onion weighs 160 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.
- What is 0.25 cups of chopped onion in tablespoons?
- 0.25 cups of chopped onion is 4.17 tablespoons. This is the same for any ingredient, since cups and tablespoons are both volume units and do not depend on what you are measuring. One cup is about 16.67 tablespoons, so 0.5 cups is 8.33 tablespoons. Use the volume converter to switch between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and millilitres for any amount. Open the volume converter

- 1 tablespoon of chopped onion is 9.6 grams. Density carries that figure through any quantity, so 2 tablespoons is 19.2 grams and 1/2 tablespoon is 4.8 grams.

Related to Chopped Onion
Shallot
Shallots are milder and sweeter than brown onion, with a faint garlic note. Use in dressings, pan sauces, and gentle braises; they soften faster, so add them a little later. See our Shallot converter.
Spring Onion
Spring onion whites are much milder and best raw or briefly cooked: salsas, garnishes, and quick stir-fries. Skip them when you need the deep sweetness onion gets from long cooking. See our Spring Onion converter.
Crushed Garlic
Crushed garlic is the other prepped allium measured by the cup or spoon. Use the crushed garlic converter when a recipe lists garlic by volume instead of cloves. See our Crushed Garlic converter.
