Brazil Nuts against the other nuts & seeds
A cup of brazil nuts weighs 130 g, which puts it 4th by weight among the 13 nuts & seeds on this site. Its nearest neighbours are walnuts at 117 g and pine nuts at 135 g per cup.
That gap matters when you substitute by volume: use a cup of pine nuts where the recipe wanted brazil nuts and you have added about 5 g extra — 4% more than intended. Weighing instead of scooping removes the problem.
