Category: Jasmine rice

A typical U.S. measuring cup of uncooked jasmine rice weighs approximately 185 to 200 grams, though this can vary depending on how tightly it is packed. Understanding this can drastically improve cooking consistency for perfect, fluffy rice every time.

According to the USA Rice Federation, one cup of dry rice expands to approximately three cups when cooked. When measuring uncooked jasmine rice, 200g translates to roughly 1.4 cups, but this can vary based on grain density and packing. Achieving the right grain-to-water ratio is crucial for fluffy, fragrant results, making accurate measurement essential.
