Measuring Tip
Chopped, sliced, and whole walnuts have very different weights per measuring cup. Always match the form specified in your recipe.
Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.

The most accurate way is to weigh walnuts on a kitchen scale. If you are measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly from the container, which packs more in and gives a heavier result.
Close, but not exactly. The cups to grams conversion for walnuts may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
Weighing is more consistent than volume measuring. A cup of walnuts can vary by 10-20% depending on how it's scooped, packed, or leveled. Weighing gives the same result every time, which is especially important in baking where precision affects texture and rise.
