A common oven temperature, 350°F, equals about
177 degrees Celsius
Those following American or British recipes often encounter oven temperatures given in Fahrenheit, which need to be converted to Celsius to correctly set their oven (conventional or fan-assisted). The formula is the same as any Fahrenheit-Celsius conversion, but here we apply it to the most common temperatures used in cooking recipes.
To convert an oven temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 and multiply by 5/9:
To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit, perform the inverse operation:
This conversion is particularly useful for those following American or British cooking blogs, where oven temperatures are almost always given in Fahrenheit. It should also be noted that American recipes often refer to conventional ovens, while fan-assisted ovens generally require a temperature about 10-20°C lower than the one indicated.
