Why does bulgur (dry) weigh what it weighs?
Whole grains and uncooked rice are remarkably consistent by volume, but they can vary 10-20% by weight depending on variety, age, and moisture content. Long-grain rice is less dense than short-grain; basmati weighs less per cup than arborio. Weighing matters most when scaling for batch cooking or precise hydration ratios.
For bulgur (dry) specifically, 1 cup weighs 182g. That is the figure to plug into recipes calling for cup measurements when you want gram precision. ChefVault stores this density (and 118 others) so you never have to look it up twice.
Recipes that originated outside the United States almost always specify weight in grams. Translating these to US cup measurements introduces error in every step. The ChefVault app handles the math automatically — paste a recipe, hit convert, get a clean weight-based version.
