About Carrot Density

Carrots are quite dense when whole, but chopped pieces contain air gaps, giving an effective cooking conversion density of 0.64 g/ml. That means one cup of chopped carrot weighs about 128 grams. Finely grated carrot packs more tightly and can weigh up to 140–150 g per cup, while large chunks weigh slightly less.

Cooking & Prep Tips

• Smaller dice cooks faster—ideal for soups and sauté bases (mirepoix).
• Shredded carrot is lighter per cup than chopped carrot unless tightly packed.
• Roasting brings out sweetness; steaming preserves nutrients.
• For carrot cake, use finely grated carrot for even moisture distribution.
