USING A FOOD THERMOMETER TO DETERMINE COOKING TIME
Once cooked, every drink and every foodstuff has a
certain internal temperature at which the cooking
process can be switched off and the food will be
cooked. The internal temperature can be ascertained
with a food thermometer. The most important
temperatures are specified in the temperature table.
