Temperature Table

I have recently purchased a digital thermometer and it came with a table for the correct temperature for cooking meat. Based on that I decided that a handy table for candy making, deep frying and roasting would be a good thing to have to hand when ever you need it. I am sure that there are many other items that could be on this temperature table, so if you can think of any, please let me know. I have been through so many thermometers. From the glass candy making one, to a spatula with a built in thermometer. The digital thermometer shown below no longer works as the probes keep failing.

  1. Cooking meat to temp is the bane of y existence! I always worry the meat just isn’t cooked enough so this table should come in handy. Need a better thermometer though. That would ease my stress levels for sure, always analyzing the chicken in particular, always thinking it looks to pink and then I panic.

  2. Great reference and lovely to have all in one place – must get on of those digital thermometer – thanks for sharing Tandy.
