Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.
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?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 tablespoon of egg whites is 15.19 g. This conversion uses the ingredient's density and scales proportionally - pick an amount or try the calculator.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg whites on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If you are measuring by volume, pour into the measuring spoon on a flat surface and read the level at eye height. Egg whites are liquid and settle naturally, so volume measurements are reasonably consistent.
Egg sizes vary naturally, so the tablespoons to grams result can differ by 5-10% between individual eggs. This conversion uses large eggs as the standard. For carton egg whites, the density is very consistent.
Weighing is more consistent than volume measuring. A tablespoon of egg whites can vary by 10-20% depending on how it's scooped, packed, or leveled. Weighing gives the same result every time, which is especially important in baking where precision affects texture and rise.
