APPROXIMATE WEIGHT8g

1 tbsp of plain flour. Ingredient density, packing and brand can change the exact weight.

HOW TO USE IT

A quick answer, with enough context to use it well.

Like cups, tablespoons measure volume rather than weight. A tablespoon of honey weighs much more than a tablespoon of flour, so choose the ingredient before converting to grams.

  1. Choose the ingredient.
  2. Enter the number of tablespoons.
  3. Use the approximate gram weight, especially when adapting recipes between measurement systems.
