Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 4g/tsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 0.25 teaspoons of lentils
  2. 1 teaspoon of lentils = 4g
  3. 0.25 × 4 = 1g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 1 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.04 oz

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

Measuring Tip

These conversions are for dry, uncooked lentils. Cooked legumes absorb water and have a completely different weight per cup.
