Measuring 100g of Chopped Walnuts in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of chopped walnuts weighs 115g when measured dip and sweep, 100 Grams (100g) translates to 0.87 US cups (¾ cup + 1 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure ¾ cup + 1 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp (13.91 tablespoons total) using dip and sweep technique. Scoop chopped walnut pieces into the measuring cup and level off. The size of the chop significantly influences density: fine dice packs closely up to 125g, whereas coarse medium pieces average 115g per cup.
