How many grams is half a cup of soy sauce?

Half a cup of soy sauce weighs

128g

That's 4.5oz. In a 250ml metric cup it's 135g.

This uses the US cup, the size American recipes mean. Half a cup is 118ml by volume.

Other amounts of soy sauce

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 16123: “Soy sauce made from soy and wheat (shoyu)”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 tbsp = 16g
  • 1 tsp = 5.3g
  • 1 cup = 255g
  • 1 individual packet = 8.9g

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.
