How many cups of pasta is 250 g?

It's tricky to give an exact number of cups for 250g of pasta because:

* Pasta shapes vary: Long pasta like spaghetti is much denser than short pasta like penne.

* Pasta brands differ: The size and weight of individual pasta pieces can vary between brands.

However, here's a general guideline:

* For long pasta (spaghetti, linguine, etc.): 250g is roughly equivalent to 1.5 cups.

* For short pasta (penne, macaroni, etc.): 250g is closer to 2 cups.

The best way to be accurate is to check the package instructions: Most pasta packages will list both the weight and the volume in cups.
