How the conversion works

Tablespoons measure volume and grams measure weight, so the conversion depends on the density of the vegetable oil. One US cup of vegetable oil weighs about 198 g, so one tablespoon weighs 12.4 g.

To convert, multiply the number of tablespoons by the weight of one tablespoon. A US cup is 236.6 mL, 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.
