How to use Cooking Converter
Convert any cooking measurement in seconds: select your input unit from the tab bar (Volume, Weight, or Cups-to-Grams), type your value, and all other fields update instantly. For Cups-to-Grams conversions, choose the ingredient from the dropdown — flour, sugar, butter, milk, and 20+ others — because different ingredients have different densities. Use the Recipe Scale multiplier to double or halve an entire recipe at once.
Why use UtilDaily’s Cooking Converter?
- Volume and weight are fundamentally different — a cup of flour weighs 120 g but a cup of honey weighs 340 g. This tool handles ingredient density automatically, so your baking conversions are accurate, not just mathematically correct.
- Covers the most common friction points: oz to ml for US-to-European recipe conversion, tsp and tbsp to ml for small measurements, and cups to grams for precision baking.
- Recipe scaling built-in — multiply all ingredients by any factor to double, halve, or scale to any serving count.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many ml in a tablespoon?
One tablespoon equals exactly 15 ml in both US and UK measurements. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon, so 1 teaspoon = 5 ml. These conversions are consistent worldwide, making tablespoons one of the simpler cooking measurements to convert.
How do I convert cups to grams?
You cannot convert cups to grams without knowing the ingredient, because cups measure volume while grams measure weight. One cup of all-purpose flour = 120 g. One cup of granulated sugar = 200 g. One cup of butter = 227 g. One cup of water or milk = approximately 240 g. Use the Cups-to-Grams tab in this tool and select your ingredient from the dropdown for accurate results.
How many ml in an ounce (oz to ml)?
One US fluid ounce equals 29.57 ml (commonly rounded to 30 ml). So 2 oz = 59 ml, 4 oz = 118 ml, 8 oz = 237 ml (about 1 cup), and 16 oz = 473 ml (1 US pint). Note that UK fluid ounces are slightly smaller at 28.41 ml — if you are following a British recipe, check which system it uses.
How many teaspoons in a tablespoon?
There are 3 teaspoons in 1 tablespoon. This is consistent across US, UK, and Australian measurements. A tablespoon is 15 ml and a teaspoon is 5 ml. For small recipe adjustments, 1/2 tablespoon = 1.5 teaspoons = 7.5 ml.
How do I convert a US recipe to metric?
To convert a US recipe to metric, replace cups with milliliters (1 cup = 240 ml), tablespoons with ml (1 tbsp = 15 ml), teaspoons with ml (1 tsp = 5 ml), and dry ingredients with grams using ingredient-specific density values. The easiest approach is to use this Cooking Converter's Cups-to-Grams tab for each ingredient individually — this handles the density differences automatically.
