Convert White Rice from Cup (US)

White Rice Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert white rice from Cup (US) to the measurement that you need.

Many rice dishes and recipes from East and Southeast Asia measure rice in cups, but the gram weight varies with how tightly the grains pack. One metric cup (250 ml) of uncooked white rice weighs 215 g (7.58 oz). This converter moves between cups, grams, tablespoons, and ounces for any amount a recipe needs.

Dry rice packs loosely or firmly in a cup, shifting the weight by up to 15 g depending on the grain and how the cup is filled. Weighing in grams keeps your rice-to-water ratio accurate every time you cook.
