Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2 teaspoons of egg whites
- 1 teaspoon of egg whites = 5.06g
- 2 × 5.06 = 10.13g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.
