Why does egg (whole, large) weigh what it weighs?
Eggs are sold by piece, not weight, but precise recipes call for grams. A large US egg averages about 50g without shell — 30g white and 17g yolk, with a small loss to shell membrane. Standardizing on weight lets you scale recipes without worrying about whether your eggs ran small or jumbo.
For egg (whole, large) specifically, 1 cup weighs 243g. 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.
