How do teaspoons and cups compare as units?
Teaspoons and cups are both volume units, so the conversion between them does not vary by ingredient. One metric cup holds about 16.67 tablespoons or 50 teaspoons, and the ratio stays fixed regardless of what you are measuring. The volume converter handles any amount between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and millilitres. Teaspoons to cups
Is 1 cup of cooked jasmine rice the same weight as 1 cup of dry jasmine rice?
No. One cup of cooked jasmine rice weighs about 165 g, while one cup of dry jasmine rice weighs 210 g. They are different states: dry rice soaks up water and swells to roughly 4.17 times its volume as it cooks, so a single dry cup makes several cooked cups. Cooking changes the weight per cup, so the dry and cooked gram figures are not interchangeable. Use the cooked rice converter to switch between dry and cooked amounts. Open the cooked rice converter
