How to measure flaxseed, whole
USDA weighed “1 cup, whole”. The same food whole, chopped, sliced, shredded or mashed fills a cup differently, so this table fits recipes that ask for it in that form; weigh when it matters.
Other charts may list a different weight for a cup of flaxseed, whole: it depends on how the cup is filled and on the brand. The numbers on this page come from one measured USDA portion (1 cup, whole = 168 g), the same data the LevelSpoon converter uses, so the page and the app always agree.
US cups and spoons (1 cup = 236.6 ml). “≈” marks the nearest amount you can measure, within 2.5 %.
