Parmesan cheese is a hard, aged Italian cheese most often used grated over pasta, risotto, or baked into pastry crusts and breads. One metric cup (250 ml) of grated Parmesan weighs around 100 grams or 3.53 ounces. When a recipe calls for a cup of grated Parmesan, the weight can vary by how finely it is grated and how loosely it is packed, so measuring by grams gives the most reliable result.
Grated Parmesan is notoriously inconsistent by volume: a loosely filled cup and a firmly packed one can differ by 20 grams or more. Weighing in grams removes that guesswork.
Also known as
- Parmigiano-Reggiano
- parmesan
- grated parmesan
Cream cheese is a soft fresh cheese (230 g per cup), much denser and milder than grated Parmesan (100 g per cup). Recipes that call for one are rarely swappable for the other: Parmesan is typically used for its sharp, salty flavour, while cream cheese provides richness and body. See our Cream Cheese converter.
If you don't have a scale, no worries! Simply convert from grams to cups or tablespoons.
