How many grams is 14 tablespoons of sour cream?
How many grams is 14 tablespoons of sour cream?
Answer
One US tablespoon (14.8 ml) of sour cream weighs 14.4 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171257 “Cream, sour, cultured”, portion “1 cup” = 230 grams, and 1 US cup = 16 US tablespoons.
USDA FoodData Central also lists a spoon portion of sour cream — “1 tbsp” = 12 grams, 16.5 % below the 14.4 grams (exactly 14.375) this page takes from the USDA cup (1 US cup = 16 US tablespoons). The page keeps the derived weight, so that the cup, tablespoon and teaspoon of one ingredient never contradict each other; spoon portions are small, and how full the spoon is moves them most.
14 tablespoons of sour cream equals 201.3 grams; the way back, from grams to tablespoons, is the Grams to Tablespoons converter.
14 US tablespoons of sour cream is also 7/8 US cup or 42 US teaspoons — the same 201.3 grams.
This is the level US tablespoon of 14.8 ml. A recipe from Australia means the tablespoon of 20 ml, 35.3 % more: 272.2 grams; the metric tablespoon of 15 ml (UK, New Zealand, Canada) gives 204.2 grams.
How 14 tablespoons of sour cream was converted to grams
One US tablespoon of sour cream weighs 14.4 grams (fourteen point four), so multiply 14 by 14.375.
14 × 14.375 g
≈201.3 grams
(two hundred one point three grams)
The weight of the tablespoon comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171257 “Cream, sour, cultured”, portion “1 cup” = 230 grams, and 1 US cup = 16 US tablespoons. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a tablespoon weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.

The other way round: how many tablespoons a weight fills
This page starts from tablespoons and answers in grams. The opposite question — how many tablespoons a weight from a recipe fills — is what the grams to tablespoons converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: 100 grams of sour cream is 6.96 tablespoons there.
