Other amounts of cottage cheese

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 01012: “Cheese, cottage, creamed, large or small curd”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 4 oz = 113g
  • 1 cup, large curd (not packed) = 210g
  • 1 cup, small curd (not packed) = 225g

Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. The tablespoon figure is the cup weight divided by 16, since USDA doesn't list a tablespoon for this ingredient. The teaspoon is a third of the tablespoon. Metric-cup figures assume a 250ml cup, and Australian tablespoons hold 20ml. Weights under 10g are rounded to 0.1g, everything else to the nearest gram.
