750 grams of tahini = 3.13 cups (3⅛ cups / 50.0 tbsp / 150.0 tsp)
Tahini has a density of approximately 240g per cup. Well-stirred sesame paste. Source: USDA FoodData Central. This is the figure used everywhere on this page, including the tablespoon and teaspoon values, so the numbers stay consistent whether you're reading the summary line, the table, or the FAQ answers below.
| Grams | Cups | Fraction | Tablespoons | Teaspoons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 650g | 2.71 | 2¾ | 43.3 | 130.0 |
| 700g | 2.92 | 2⅞ | 46.7 | 140.0 |
| 750g | 3.13 | 3⅛ | 50.0 | 150.0 |
| 800g | 3.33 | 3⅓ | 53.3 | 160.0 |
| 850g | 3.54 | 3½ | 56.7 | 170.0 |
How the 750g Figure Is Calculated
750g divided by 240g (the weight of one cup of tahini) equals 3.13 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 50.0 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 150.0 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Tahini is denser than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 750g of tahini fills less volume (739ml) than the same weight of water would (752ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 750 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 3.13 cup figure above uses the US Customary cup (236.588ml). Recipes written outside the US sometimes use a metric cup (250ml) or an imperial (uk) cup (284.131ml) instead. At 750g, that's 2⅞ metric cups or 2⅝ imperial cups of tahini, close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.
Scaling 750g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 750g of tahini means weighing 1,500g, or measuring 6.25 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 375g, or 1.56 cups. Weight scales exactly with simple multiplication; cup measurements compound any scooping error each time they're doubled or halved, so weighing is more reliable the more a recipe is scaled.
Tahini vs. Other Condiments & Sauces
Within condiments & sauces, density still varies by ingredient. At 750g, almond butter (240g per cup) measures 3⅛ cups, while peanut butter (258g per cup) measures 2⅞ cups, compared to 3⅛ cups for tahini. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Where 750g of Tahini Fits in a Recipe
- Hummus recipes typically use 60g to 90g of tahini per batch.
- Tahini dressings often call for 30g mixed with lemon and garlic.
- Halva and tahini cookies usually need about 120g.
How to Measure It Accurately
Condiments & Sauces
Use a spatula to level thick condiments like peanut butter or tahini after pressing them into the cup to remove air gaps.
For exact results
Stir thick condiments well before measuring, since separation during storage (common in natural nut butters) can make the top and bottom of the jar measure differently.

Why is tahini's gram-to-cup ratio different from other ingredients?+
Tahini weighs 240g per cup because of its own density. Well-stirred sesame paste.
Does a metric or imperial cup change this 750g conversion?+
Yes, slightly. 750g of tahini is 2⅞ metric cups or 2⅝ imperial cups, versus 3⅛ US cups, since each cup standard holds a different volume.
