Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 5.74 ounces of egg whites
- Convert ounces to grams: 5.74 × 28.35 = 162.73g
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g

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

One large egg white weighs approximately 30g and one large egg yolk weighs approximately 17g. Weighing separated eggs is more reliable than counting, since individual eggs vary in size.
