Ingredients

Found a recipe you want to try but, unfortunately, it only gives oven temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit and you cook by gas - what is the gas mark equivalent?

These question are very often asked :

What is meant by "cook in a moderate oven"?

My new cooker has Celsius markings, how do I convert my old recipes?

These are all queries I have received over the past few months, so I thought this page may prove useful to others -

Directions

Fahrenheit celsius Gas Mark Description

225 110 1/4 very slow

250 120/130 1/2 very slow

275 140 1 slow

300 150 2 slow

325 160/170 3 moderate

350 180 180 4 moderate

375 190 190 5 moderate hot

400 200 200 6 moderate hot

425 220 220 7 hot

450 230 8 hot

475 240 9 very hot

Please remember this is a guide only and not exact conversions.

As a rule of thumb Celsius is roughly half the Fahrenheit temperature.

Fan assisted ovens are usually set approximately 25 degrees Celsius (i.e. approximately 50 degrees Fahrenheit) lower than others and cooking time is reduced by 10 minutes for every hour of cooking time.

Different manufacturers and oven types do vary, so always refer to your cooker instruction book.
