Working with grated parmesan
Grated Parmesan sits in the dairy & cheese group, where the ingredient is light and airy, so a cup contains a lot of trapped air and the weight swings easily with handling. Microplaned parmesan is fluffy at around 90 g per cup; the shaker-style powder is much denser.
If you are converting a whole recipe rather than a single line, the Recipe to Metric converter matches every ingredient to its own density in one pass, and the Recipe Scaler resizes the batch first so you only convert once.
