Measuring ¾ US Cup of Seedless Raisins in the Kitchen
Measured gently spoon and level at a verified bulk density of 150g per US cup, ¾ US cup of seedless raisins weighs 112.5 grams (3.97 ounces). Measured using the firmly packed raisins method (165g/cup), that same ¾ cup holds 123.8g — a 11.3g difference in your mixing bowl.
Spoon raisins loosely into the cup and level without tamping. Natural surface stickiness causes raisins to bridge and trap voids; pressing them firmly into the cup raises weight from 150g to 165g.
