How to measure raisins

Whole and chopped nuts sit loosely, so a cup of chopped nuts weighs less than a cup of ground nuts. Dried fruit is loosely packed.

Loose. Packed raisins weigh about 170 g per cup.

Also called: kishmish.

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.
