Measuring 200g of Self-Rising Flour in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of self-rising flour weighs 113g when measured spooned & leveled, 200 Grams (200g) translates to 1.77 US cups (1 ¾ cups + 1 tsp). By contrast, using the dip scooped measure (135g/cup — a 22g per-cup shift), 200g occupies 1 ⅓ cups + 2 tbsp + 1 tsp (1.48 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ¾ cups + 1 tsp (28.32 tablespoons total) using spooned & leveled technique. Whisk briefly to evenly disperse the baking powder and salt before spooning into the measuring cup.
