Tag: Mayonnaise conversion

One U.S. tablespoon of mayonnaise typically weighs around 14 to 15 grams. This means that converting a specific weight like 50 grams to a volume measurement can be crucial for achieving consistent results in your cooking and baking, especially for delicate recipes where ingredient ratios are paramount.

The density of an ingredient significantly affects its volume-to-weight conversion, which is why 100g of mayonnaise does not equal the same volume as 100g of water or flour. For most traditional mayonnaise varieties, 100g is approximately 0.43 to 0.47 U.S. cups, though this can vary slightly by brand.
