  • One metric tablespoon of grated cheese weighs about 6 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 5.9 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 8 grams.
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

Grated cheese is any hard or semi-hard cheese that has been shredded into fine strands, commonly used as a topping or stirred into sauces, bakes, and gratins. One metric cup (250 ml) of grated cheese weighs around 100 grams or 3.53 ounces. When a recipe calls for a cup of grated cheese, measuring by grams gives a more reliable result, as how finely the cheese is grated and how loosely it is packed both affect the volume.

A loosely filled cup of grated cheese and a firmly packed one can differ by 20 grams or more. Measuring in grams ensures the right amount of cheese for melting, browning, and flavour balance in every dish.
