Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 160g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 10 ounces of onions (diced)
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 10 × 28.35 = 283.50g
  3. 1 cup of onions (diced) = 160g
  4. 283.50g ÷ 160g/cup = 1.77 cups × 16 = 28.35 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 28.35 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.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 160 (grams per cup), then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 10 ounces: 10 × 28.3495 = 283.50g, then 283.50 ÷ 160 = 1.77 cups × 16 = 28.35 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: 28.35 tbsp ÷ 16 = 1.77185 cups, then 1.77185 × 160g/cup = 283.50g, then 283.50g ÷ 28.3495 = 10 ounces. Or use the Tablespoons to Ounces converter.
