Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 1 1/4 cups of couscous?

1 1/4 cups of couscous is 216 grams, based on 173 g per level US cup.

Is it different with a UK or Australian cup?

Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). Using a metric cup, 1 1/4 cups of couscous would be 229 g.

Should I weigh couscous or measure it by volume?

Grains settle when shaken, so pour them in loosely and level off rather than tapping the cup. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
