Notes To Converting Rice Cups To Ounces
As you can see, all types of rice vary roughly between 7 and 7.5 ounces per cup. Somewhere we rounded the values as even when you measure the same type of rice in the same setting you can get different results by 0.05-0.1 ounces.
Furthermore, when using rice, it is not that important to have exact quantities. You won’t really notice any difference if using 7 or 7.5 ounces of rice, no matter what type.
So simply using 7 (7.05) ounces as the weight of one cup for long grain rice and 7.5 (7.41) ounces for smaller grain rice will do the job.
We used regular US cups (240 ml) to determine how much is 1 cup of rice in oz.
