Oven Conversion Chart
Use This Table As Your Guide
Overview
What happens when you find a recipe that’s vague on the oven cooking temperature? What’s the difference between “very hot oven” and “quick oven?” What’s the difference between a “moderately hot” and a “fairly hot” oven?
Think no more: Check this oven conversion chart.
The only rub is that some descriptors have two or three different options (for example, Extremely Hot Oven). The best course is to use the lowest level.
