  • 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
  • One metric tablespoon of green beans weighs about 6.6 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 6.5 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 8.8 grams.
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

Green beans are slender, edible pods eaten whole, also sold as French beans or string beans. One metric cup (250 ml) of raw, trimmed and cut green beans weighs around 110 grams or 3.88 ounces. When a recipe lists green beans in cups but you are working from a fresh bunch, converting by weight keeps the amount right.

Whole, cut, and frozen green beans fill a cup differently, so volume measures drift. Weighing in grams gives a steadier result for casseroles, stir-fries, and salads.
