}Explanation
Convert grams of couscous to tablespoons with the tablespoon measure derived from the same ingredient density.
Because a tablespoon is a fixed share of a US cup, spoon and cup measurements remain aligned. That is especially useful for batch cooking and portion planning, where grain volume and weight need to stay aligned. Couscous can vary with grain shape and how the grains settle in the cup, so the page keeps one explicit basis for repeatable prep.
