How to convert ounces of grated parmesan to cups

Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 6 oz = 170 g. One US cup of grated parmesan weighs 100 g, so 170 ÷ 100 = 1.7 cups.

Measure liquids in a clear jug at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt or sour cream should be levelled in a dry cup.
