How Much Is 1 Tablespoon of Type 00 Flour in Ounces?
1 tablespoon of type 00 flour equals 0.28 oz. Type 00 flour has a density of 127g per cup (7.94g per tablespoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 1 tablespoon of honey would be 0.75 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1 tablespoon of type 00 flour
- 1 tablespoon of type 00 flour = 7.94g
- 1 × 7.94 = 7.94g
- Convert grams to ounces: 7.94 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.28 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh type 00 flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.
