Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4 ounces of egg whites
- Convert ounces to grams: 4 × 28.35 = 113.40g
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 113.40g ÷ 243g/cup = 0.47 cups × 16 = 7.47 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.
