  • Cottage cheese weight shifts with curd style and drainage. This page uses 234 g for a metric cup of standard creamed, small-curd cheese. Dry-curd or large-curd cottage cheese holds less whey, so a cup can weigh noticeably less. Weigh for the most reliable result.

Cottage cheese is a fresh cheese made by draining curdled milk, leaving soft curds suspended in a little whey. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 234 grams or 8.25 ounces. It works as a high-protein topping, blends into smooth dips and pancakes, and fills lasagne or stuffed shells.

Cottage cheese tubs are sold by weight, but recipes ask for cups or tablespoons. The mix of curds and whey settles unevenly in a measuring cup, so weighing in grams gives a more reliable measure.
