Use this uncooked white rice cups to grams converter when a recipe gives volume but you want the repeatability of a kitchen scale. The page is pre-filled with uncooked white rice and uses 185 grams per US cup as the working density, so cup, tablespoon, teaspoon, milliliter, fluid ounce, and gram conversions stay tied to the ingredient instead of a generic liquid assumption. This row is for uncooked white rice; cooked rice holds water and needs a separate conversion reference. It is most useful for uncooked rice portions, meal prep, casseroles, pilafs, and pantry batch conversions, especially when scaling a recipe up or down before mixing.
