Rice Measurement FAQ
Everything you need to know about converting between grams and cups when cooking with rice.
100g of uncooked white rice is approximately 0.5 cups. This can vary slightly depending on the rice variety, how it’s measured, and whether it’s packed or loosely spooned into the cup.
One US cup of uncooked white rice weighs approximately 185 to 200 grams. Brown rice and basmati rice can weigh slightly less per cup due to differences in grain shape and density.
No. Rice roughly triples in weight and volume when cooked because it absorbs water. 100g of uncooked rice typically yields around 250 to 300g of cooked rice, so recipes should specify which measurement they mean.
Not exactly. Long-grain rice like basmati and jasmine is slightly less dense than short-grain white rice, so the grams-per-cup figure varies a little between varieties, though the difference is usually small enough to ignore for everyday cooking.
