How to measure pumpkin seeds

Pumpkin seeds conversions: FAQ

Why doesn't a cup of pumpkin seeds weigh the same as a cup of water?

A cup measures volume, not weight. Pumpkin seeds is less dense than water (138 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.
