How exactly do I measure shredded
cheese by the cup?
Q: When a recipe calls for a cup of shredded cheese
does that mean an 8 ounce block of cheese shredded or what will
fit in an 8 ounce (2 cups) measuring cup?
A: Basically, when a recipe is asking for shredded
cheese in cup measurements, it is suggesting the amount of "shredded"
cheese it takes to fill the measuring cup. 4 ounces of cheese
equals 1 cup, and 8 ounces equal 2 cups cheese.
Tip: Don't worry too much about
having the exact amount of cheese, a little more or less is not
going to make much difference in recipes calling for shredded
cheese in cup measurements instead of by weight measurements...and
even if you only had 7 ounces, it probably wouldn't matter too
much either.
