Pour liquids into a liquid measuring jug on a flat surface and read it at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt is spooned in and levelled.
Finely grated from a tub. Freshly microplaned Parmesan is fluffier and lighter.
Weights are for a level US cup (236.6 ml) and level spoons, from King Arthur Baking's ingredient weight chart. Brands and packing vary by a few per cent; when a recipe gives grams, weigh rather than measure.
1 level US cup of grated parmesan weighs about 100 g (3.5 oz). A 250 ml metric cup weighs about 106 g.
1 level tablespoon of grated parmesan is about 6.3 g, and 1 teaspoon is about 2.1 g.
100 g of grated parmesan is about 1 cup, or 16 tablespoons.
A cup measures volume, not weight. Grated Parmesan is full of air between the particles, so a cup weighs much less than a cup of water (100 g vs 237 g).
