I believe anything that is cooked before eating is measured after cooking.

Cook.
Measure.
Eat.

Tada! Hope this helped.

this confuses me also, I ended measuring out 2 oz (or whatever the serving size) and cooking it seperately so I would know how much to eat. If I remember correctly, it was about 1 cup cooked.

it's 2 oz - uncooked.

And yes - about 1 cup cooked!

I believe it is dry. Because it puffs up so much that two ounces cooked would be HUGE!!!!
