How many cups is 200 grams of chickpeas?

200 grams of dry chickpeas is about 1 cup. The same 200 grams of cooked (boiled and drained) chickpeas is about 1.22 cups, and 200 grams of canned (drained) chickpeas is about 1.18 cups, since cooked and canned chickpeas are less dense per cup.

Why do dry and cooked chickpeas convert to different cup amounts?

Cooking makes chickpeas absorb water and swell, so the same weight takes up more volume once cooked. A gram amount of cooked chickpeas fills more cup space than the same gram amount measured dry.

How many cups of cooked chickpeas come from 100g of dry chickpeas?

About 100 grams of dry chickpeas yields roughly 1.5 cups of cooked chickpeas after soaking and boiling, since chickpeas roughly triple in volume when cooked.

Is canned the same as cooked chickpeas?

They are close but not identical. Canned chickpeas are already cooked and packed in liquid, and draining them gives a slightly denser cup than home-cooked chickpeas because of differences in bean size and packing.

Is this the same as a US cup or a metric cup?

This tool uses the US cup (236.6 ml). A metric cup (250 ml) would give a slightly lower cup result for the same gram weight.

Grams	Dry	Cooked	Canned

Values are measured by US cup (236.6 ml). Cooked and canned chickpeas fill more cup space per gram than dry chickpeas because cooking swells the beans and increases their volume relative to their weight.
