Cups to grams / Sliced mushrooms

How many grams is 1 tablespoon of sliced mushrooms?

1 tablespoon of sliced mushrooms (sliced white mushrooms) weighs

4.4g

That's 0.2oz. An Australian 20ml tablespoon holds 5.9g.

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 11260: “Mushrooms, white, raw”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 cup, pieces or slices = 70g
  • 1 cup, whole = 96g
  • 1 large = 23g
  • 1 medium = 18g
  • 1 slice = 6g
  • 1 small = 10g
  • 0.5 cup pieces = 35g

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.
