A metric cup (250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many Indian recipes) holds about 6% more than a US cup.
Small amounts are measured with level measuring spoons; for spices a tiny weighing error matters little, but for salt and leaveners use level spoons.
Also called: haldi powder.
Weights are for a level US cup (236.6 ml) and level spoons, from USDA FoodData Central household measures. Brands and packing vary by a few per cent; when a recipe gives grams, weigh rather than measure.
1 level US cup of ground turmeric weighs about 144 g (5.1 oz). A 250 ml metric cup weighs about 152 g.
1 level tablespoon of ground turmeric is about 9 g, and 1 teaspoon is about 3 g.
100 g of ground turmeric is about 0.69 cups, or 11.1 tablespoons.
A cup measures volume, not weight. Ground Turmeric is full of air between the particles, so a cup weighs much less than a cup of water (144 g vs 237 g).
