Chopped leeks conversions: FAQ

Why doesn't a cup of chopped leeks weigh the same as a cup of water?

A cup measures volume, not weight. Chopped leeks is less dense than water (89 g versus 237 g per cup), so the same volume has a different weight. Weighing in grams is the most accurate way to measure it.
