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 walnuts weighs about 6.4 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 6.3 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 8.5 grams.
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

Walnuts are used in baking, salads, cereals, and confectionery. One metric cup (250 ml) of walnut halves weighs around 106 grams or 3.74 ounces. When a recipe calls for walnuts by weight, you get the same amount every time regardless of how the halves happen to pack.

Walnut halves are bulky and leave air gaps in a measuring cup, so a cup measure can vary significantly depending on how the nuts settle. A gram weight removes that uncertainty.
