Frequently Asked Questions

About 13.76 oz, 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.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 10 (grams per tablespoon for onions (diced)), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 39 tablespoons: 39 × 10 = 390g, then 390 ÷ 28.3495 = 13.76 oz.
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.
