How to measure rice flour accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh rice flour on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of rice flour weighs about 158 grams (5.57 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts rice flour and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Because it is so dense, scooping rice flour straight from the bag overshoots fast — spoon it in and level for the 158g figure.
