rice grams to cups Converter

How the rice conversion works

The converter applies cups = grams ÷ grams-per-cup for uncooked rice. White long-grain lands around 185 g per US cup, brown around 190 g, and basmati and jasmine around 200 g — grain shape and bran change how tightly a cup packs.

Worked example: a recipe calling for 200 g of uncooked white long-grain rice needs 200 ÷ 185 ≈ 1.08 cups. The same 200 g of basmati is exactly 1 cup — and remember rice roughly triples in weight when cooked, so never use cooked weights here.

Treat every preset as typical, not exact: grain length, milling and brand shift cup weights, and a heaped cup is not a level cup. When a dish has to be right, weigh with a scale — and always confirm whether your recipe means cooked or uncooked rice.
