How to convert ounces of grated parmesan to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 16 oz = 454 g. One US cup of grated parmesan weighs 100 g, so 454 ÷ 100 = 4.54 cups.
Measure liquids in a clear jug at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt or sour cream should be levelled in a dry cup.
