In short
One millilitre is 0.005 japanese cup, so to convert millilitre to japanese cup you multiply by 0.005, and to go back you multiply japanese cup by 200. 2 millilitre is 0.01 japanese cup, 5 is 0.025 and 10 is 0.05. A Japanese measuring cup is 200 ml, against 236.6 ml for a US cup and 250 ml for a metric cup. That is a 15% difference from the American cup, which is enough to change a batter — and the rice cup supplied with a Japanese cooker is different again at 180 ml, one go. The japanese cup is used in Japan, where recipes and rice cookers use a 200 ml cup rather than the 240 ml American one.
