Oven Thermometer

Ensuring your oven is at the right temperature is crucial to the success of most recipes. That's why this thermometer is such a useful tool – it lets you take an accurate reading wherever food will be placed in the oven so you can fine-tune the temperature setting.

Encased in stainless steel, the glass-topped dial face measures about 2 1/2" in diameter and has clear temperature markings from 100°F/38°C to 600°F/316°C. It has a hook for hanging and a broad base for freestanding use.

A simple way to ensure consistent results, particularly if you have an older oven.
