Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 160g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 524 grams of onions (diced)
  2. 1 cup of onions (diced) = 160g
  3. 524g ÷ 160g/cup = 3.28 cups × 16 = 52.40 tablespoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Raw and cooked produce have very different weights per cup. Cooked vegetables shrink and become denser. These conversions are for raw produce.

Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

What is a Tablespoon?

Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 52.40 tbsp, based on onions (diced) having a density of 160g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 160 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 524 grams: 524 ÷ 160 = 3.28 cups × 16 = 52.40 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh onions (diced) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 52.40 tbsp ÷ 16 = 3.275 cups, then 3.275 × 160g/cup = 524g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
