Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like corn syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring spoon first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.
Understanding the Units
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.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 tablespoon of corn syrup is 20.50 g. The conversion depends on the density of corn syrup and scales proportionally for any amount.
Weighing corn syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Corn syrup is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and spoons, making volume measurements less reliable than for thinner liquids. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the cup first so the corn syrup slides out cleanly.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The tablespoons to grams result for corn syrup should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
Corn syrup is dense and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and does not pour cleanly. Volume measurements can easily be off by 5-10% depending on how much corn syrup stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
