Frequently Asked Questions

About 170.87 oz, based on couscous having a density of 173g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.

For the most accurate results, weigh couscous 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.
