One thought on “Oven temperature conversion

  1. I think the rule here is “know you oven”. I tended to found I would need to “get use to an oven” before I could reliably cook in it.

    I found by using an oven thermometer I was able to understand what the oven was really doing, though since my oven is gas it has hot spots making oven cooking annoying.
