Sushi Rice Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert sushi rice from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.

Sushi rice is a short-grain Japanese variety that becomes sticky when cooked, making it ideal for sushi rolls, onigiri, and rice bowls. One metric cup (250 ml) of uncooked sushi rice weighs 225 g (7.94 oz). Use this converter when a recipe calls for cups and you want to weigh the rice, or when scaling a dish up or down.

Sushi rice's round, compact grains pack more densely per cup than long-grain rice, so the same cup holds noticeably more grams. Weighing in grams keeps the rice-to-water ratio consistent and gives you the same sticky texture every time.
