1 Cup Rice in Grams
1 cup of rice weighs:
185g
US cup (240 ml)
193g
Metric / AU cup (250 ml)
American recipes mean the 240 ml cup; Australian, British and New Zealand recipes mean the 250 ml metric cup. If the recipe does not say, the cuisine usually tells you — see the full cups to grams guide.
A cup of uncooked long-grain white rice is about 185 g. Worth noting: the plastic cup that comes with a rice cooker is not a US cup — it is a Japanese gō of 180 ml, which holds roughly 150 g of rice.
