How to measure frozen green peas
The USDA entry is “Peas, green, frozen, unprepared, 1 cup = 134 g”, so the figure is for peas still frozen, before cooking. Pour them in and level the cup. They sit close to frozen corn at 136 grams per cup on this site and well under raw chopped onion at 160 grams. Dry split peas are a different ingredient at 196 grams per cup, so check which a recipe means. Half a cup is 67 grams, a quarter cup about 34 grams, and 100 grams is almost exactly 3/4 cup. King Arthur Baking’s chart does not list peas.
Sources: 134 grams per US cup is the cup weight in USDA FoodData Central (open FDC entry 170016), entry “Peas, green, frozen, unprepared (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program), 1 cup = 134 g”. A US cup is about 237 milliliters.
