How Much Is 1.33 Grams of Cornstarch in Tablespoons?
Converting 1.33 grams of cornstarch to tablespoons gives 0.17 tbsp. Divide by the density of cornstarch (128g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.33 grams of cornstarch
- 1 cup of cornstarch = 128g
- 1.33g ÷ 128g/cup = 0.01 cups × 16 = 0.17 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh cornstarch on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

Understanding the Units
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.
What is a Tablespoon?
One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.
