Cooking weights and measures

Cooking recipe units are measured in either mass (weight), volume or quantity. Converting a weight cooking unit (ounce, pound etc) to a volume unit (cup, tablespoon etc) is not possible unless you know the density of that ingredient.

Weight:

The US and the British recipes use pounds and ounces and the rest of the world uses grams and kilograms for weight measurement. To convert between the weight units, please visit weight conversion page.

Here is the cooking conversion factors list for weight from pounds to grams:

1 Pound =

• 16 ounces
• 0.45 kilogram
• 453.592 grams

Volume:

The liquid ingredients are measured by volume. The United States uses the US customary units and the British uses imperial units for volume measurement. The rest of the world uses the metric volume units. To convert between the liquid cooking recipe units, please visit all cooking conversion page.
