A metric cup (250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many Indian recipes) holds about 6% more than a US cup.
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.
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 sour cream weighs about 230 g (8.1 oz). A 250 ml metric cup weighs about 243 g.
1 level tablespoon of sour cream is about 14 g, and 1 teaspoon is about 4.8 g.
100 g of sour cream is about 0.43 cups, or 7 tablespoons.
A cup measures volume, not weight. Sour Cream is slightly lighter than water, so a cup weighs a little less (230 g vs 237 g).
