Expert Tips
Honey is denser than water (1.42 g/ml vs 1.0 g/ml), so 1 cup of honey weighs significantly more than 1 cup of water.
To measure honey accurately by volume, lightly coat the measuring cup with oil first - the honey will slide right out.
When substituting honey for sugar in baking, reduce other liquids by 1/4 cup per cup of honey and lower oven temperature by 25°F.

340g of honey equals approximately 1.01 cups. Honey is very dense at 1.42 g/ml, making it one of the heaviest ingredients per cup.
Not exactly. Honey has a density of 1.42 g/ml, so 340g = 239.4 ml. Water is the only liquid where grams approximately equal milliliters.
Yes, and it's much more accurate and less messy. 340g on a kitchen scale is more precise than 1 cup in a measuring cup, and you don't need to coat the cup with oil.
