Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.23 cups of ricotta
- 1 cup of ricotta = 246g
- 0.23 × 246 = 56.58g
- Convert grams to ounces: 56.58 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.00 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Spoon ricotta into the measuring cup and pack gently to fill gaps. Do not scoop directly from the container, which leaves air pockets.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
