Pecorino Romano is a hard, aged Italian cheese made from sheep's milk, with a sharper, saltier flavour than Parmesan. One metric cup (250 ml) of grated Pecorino Romano weighs around 100 grams or 3.53 ounces. When a recipe calls for grated Pecorino by volume, measuring by grams gives a more consistent result, as the weight per cup varies with how finely it is grated.
Grated Pecorino Romano is intense: a small amount goes a long way. Measuring by grams rather than cups keeps the saltiness in check and ensures consistent results in pasta, risotto, and baked dishes.

Related Pecorino Romano Ingredients
Parmesan and Pecorino Romano are both hard Italian grating cheeses with the same weight per cup (100 g). Pecorino is sharper and saltier, made from sheep's milk, while Parmesan is milder and nuttier. They are interchangeable in most pasta and risotto recipes, but the flavour will be bolder with Pecorino. See our Parmesan Cheese converter.
Generic grated cheese is typically milder and melts more readily than Pecorino Romano. Both weigh around 100 g per cup when grated, but Pecorino's stronger flavour means recipes often call for less of it. See our Grated Cheese converter.
