What Type of Diced Tomatoes Do These Values Use?
This conversion is intended for canned diced tomatoes packed in tomato juice or purée. Measure both the tomato pieces and the liquid unless the recipe specifically asks for drained tomatoes.
Dice size and the amount of liquid can vary between brands. Stirring the contents before measuring helps produce a more consistent mixture.
Should Diced Tomatoes Be Drained?
The values on this page apply to undrained diced tomatoes. Many soups, stews and sauces use the liquid as part of the recipe.
If the instructions say to drain the tomatoes, remove the liquid first and then measure them. Drained diced tomatoes will have a different weight per cup.
Canned Diced Tomatoes Compared with Fresh Tomato
Canned diced tomatoes contain cooking and packing liquid, so they are not equivalent by weight to a cup of chopped fresh tomato.
Canned tomatoes are also softened during processing, allowing the pieces to fit more closely together in the measuring cup.
Diced Tomatoes Compared with Crushed Tomatoes
Diced tomatoes contain distinct tomato pieces. Crushed tomatoes have a finer, less uniform texture and usually blend into a sauce more quickly during cooking.
Use the converter for the exact tomato product named in the recipe, since the proportion of tomato pieces and liquid affects the density.
How to Measure Diced Tomatoes
- Stir the tomatoes and packing liquid together.
- Spoon the mixture into the measuring cup.
- Include the liquid unless the recipe asks for drained tomatoes.
- Distribute the pieces evenly without pressing them down.
- Use a kitchen scale when the recipe provides grams.
