Quick answers

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 12220: “Seeds, flaxseed”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 tbsp, whole = 10.3g
  • 1 cup, whole = 168g
  • 1 tbsp, ground = 7g
  • 1 tsp, whole = 3.4g
  • 1 tsp, ground = 2.5g

Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. 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. Full source list.
