Measuring 100g of Extra-Virgin Olive Oil in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of extra-virgin olive oil weighs 216g when measured poured liquid, 100 Grams (100g) translates to 0.46 US cups (⅓ cup + 2 tbsp + ¼ tsp). By contrast, using the standard refined olive oil measure (216g/cup — an identical per-cup density), 100g occupies ⅓ cup + 2 tbsp + ¼ tsp (0.46 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure ⅓ cup + 2 tbsp + ¼ tsp (7.41 tablespoons total) using poured liquid technique. Pour steadily into a liquid measuring cup set flat on the counter, checking meniscus at eye level, or weigh on a gram scale.
