A metric cup (250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many Indian recipes) holds about 6% more than a US cup.
Chopped fruit and vegetables are loosely packed. Purées and mashes are spooned in and levelled.
Raw leaves, loosely packed. A cup of cooked spinach weighs about 180 g.
Also called: palak.
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 raw spinach weighs about 30 g (1.06 oz). A 250 ml metric cup weighs about 32 g.
1 level tablespoon of raw spinach is about 1.9 g, and 1 teaspoon is about 0.6 g.
100 g of raw spinach is about 3.33 cups, or 53.3 tablespoons.
A cup measures volume, not weight. Raw Spinach is full of air between the particles, so a cup weighs much less than a cup of water (30 g vs 237 g).
