Measuring Tip
Raw sugar should be spooned into the measuring spoon and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).
Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
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
1 ounce of raw sugar is 2.27 tbsp. The conversion depends on the density of raw sugar and scales proportionally for any amount.
If you have a kitchen scale, weighing raw sugar gives you an exact starting point for this conversion. If you need to measure by volume instead, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge.
Close, but not exactly. The ounces to tablespoons conversion for raw sugar may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. An ounce of raw sugar fills a different number of tablespoons than an ounce of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
