How Much Is 4.29 Ounces of Egg Whites in Tablespoons?
Converting 4.29 ounces of egg whites to tablespoons gives 8.01 tbsp. First convert to grams (4.29 oz = 121.62g), then divide by the density of egg whites (243g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4.29 ounces of egg whites
- Convert ounces to grams: 4.29 × 28.35 = 121.62g
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 121.62g ÷ 243g/cup = 0.50 cups × 16 = 8.01 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
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.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
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.
