Measuring 175g of Fresh Blueberries in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of fresh blueberries weighs 148g when measured loose fill, 175 Grams (175g) translates to 1.18 US cups (1 cup + 2 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 cup + 2 tbsp + 2 ¾ tsp (18.92 tablespoons total) using loose fill technique. Pour dry fresh berries loosely into the cup until flush with the rim. Do not press or crush the berries; standard cultivated round blueberries roll into a natural loose pack weighing 148 grams per cup.
