Rice Serving

Convert rice servings into dry weight and cooked volume.

About Rice Serving

Servings are multiplied by the dry rice amount, weighted at 185 grams per cup, and tripled for the cooked yield. Rice nearly triples in volume as it cooks, so sizing servings from dry measure prevents enormous leftover bowls.
