I just measured a three lb. thing of ricotta, and it came out to 5.5 cups.
So one lb. is 1 and 3/4 cups plus 4 tsp to be precise, or about 2 cups.
There are approximately 16 ounces of ricotta cheese in a pint. This is equivalent to 2 cups of ricotta cheese.
There is approximately 246 grams of ricotta in acup
That is approximately 0.421 of a cup
Actually there are 8 fluid ounces in a cup. This is not the same as weight ounces. For ricotta you will actually have 9 - 10 ounces in a cup depending on the density of your ricotta.
1 cup of ricotta cheese is equal to 246 grams. However, this measurement will change based on what you are using. A cup is a measure of volume, but a gram is measure of mass. Depending on the density, the weight will change.
50 grams is equal to a 1/2 cup of grated cheese.
1 cup of Ricotta.
Ricotta cheese contains about 14 grams of protein per 1/2 cup serving.
There are eight ounces in a cup. Fifteen ounces of ricotta cheese would be one ounce less than two cups.
1 cup of ricotta cheese is equal to 246 grams. However, this measurement will change based on what you are using. A cup is a measure of volume, but a gram is measure of mass. Depending on the density, the weight will change.
Since 'pounds' refers to the weight of the cheese, the answer will vary according to the mass or density of the cheese itself. One cup of cottage cheese or cream cheese will likely weigh more than one cup of shredded cheddar as an example.
A half cup is going to be less then 8 oz of shredded cheese. The simplest thing is to cube or shred the cheese and then measure it in a measuring cup.
