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 cornstarch is 12.5 tablespoons there.
