Grams to cups: raisins
Working the other way — a recipe in grams, and cups are what you have in the drawer:
| Grams of raisins | Cups (approx.) |
|---|---|
| 50 g | ⅓ cup |
| 100 g | ⅔ cup |
| 125 g | ⅚ cup |
| 200 g | 1⅓ cups |
| 250 g | 1⅔ cups |
| 500 g | 3⅜ cups |
Why the measuring method matters
The 149 g figure assumes raisins loosely filled, not packed. Pressed down, the same cup holds more: King Arthur lists packed raisins at 85 g per ½ cup (170 g a cup). A scale removes the variable entirely, and it is the reason professional recipes are written in weight.
