Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 14.04 tablespoons of pecans
- 1 tablespoon of pecans = 7.13g
- 14.04 × 7.13 = 100.04g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

When a recipe says "1 cup nuts, chopped" vs "1 cup chopped nuts," the first means measure whole then chop. The second means chop first then measure. The weight difference can be significant.
