How many grams is 1 tablespoon of shredded cabbage?

1 tablespoon of shredded cabbage weighs

A level US or UK tablespoon (15ml). USDA doesn't measure a tablespoon of this, so this is a sixteenth of its cup weight.

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 11109: “Cabbage, raw”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 cup, chopped = 89g
  • 1 cup, shredded = 70g
  • 1 head, large (about 7" dia) = 1248g
  • 1 leaf, large = 33g
  • 1 head, medium (about 5-3/4" dia) = 908g
  • 1 leaf, medium = 23g
  • 1 head, small (about 4-1/2" dia) = 714g
  • 1 leaf = 15g

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.
