How Much Is 2.67 Tablespoons of Tomato Paste in Ounces?
2.67 tablespoons of tomato paste weighs 1.54 oz. This is based on tomato paste having a density of 262g per cup.

Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2.67 tablespoons of tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon of tomato paste = 16.38g
- 2.67 × 16.38 = 43.72g
- Convert grams to ounces: 43.72 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.54 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mashed and pureed ingredients vary in density depending on texture. A smoother puree packs more densely per cup than a chunky one.
