Oven Temperature Conversion TableOven temperature conversion is every recipe maker's nightmare. It is a known fact that cooks and mathematicians have different skills and neither like attempting a change-over. So I hope, for all of our sakes, I'm not attempting the impossible with this page. So let's start with the geeky stuff and give you a formula and then we'll list a quick reference chart below.
Subtract 32 from the Farenheit figure then multiply by 5 and divide by 9 to get the Centigrade figure.
Mulitpy the Centigrade figure by 9, divide by 5 and then add 32 to get the Farenheit figure. Pay attention those of you sitting in the back row: There will be a test!
For all the lazy (or sensible) folk here is your quick reference oven temperature conversion table: 250F = 130C 300F = 150C 325F = 160C 350F = 180C 375F = 190C 400F = 200C 425F = 220C 450F = 230C 475F = 250C 500F = 280C I posted this for my own benefit too because I have to admit that I usually guess the conversion when writing up recipes. Now there are no excuses.
