Frequently Asked Questions

How many cups is 100g of olive oil?

How many grams are in 1 cup of olive oil?

One US cup of olive oil weighs about 216 grams, one tablespoon about 13.5 grams, and one teaspoon about 4.5 grams. This page divides 100 grams by that cup weight.

Is 100g of olive oil the same as 100g of all-purpose flour?

No. 100g of olive oil is ½ cup, while 100g of all-purpose flour is ¾ cup. Same weight on the scale, different volume in the cup, because the two have different densities.

How do I measure 100g of olive oil without a scale?

Is it better to weigh olive oil or measure it in cups?

Weighing is more accurate, especially in baking, because it removes the variation in how the olive oil is packed into the cup. If you have no scale, use the cup figure above and keep your measuring method consistent across the whole recipe.
