Cooktop settings and temperatures
Often one will see recipes that say "Cook on medium heat" or "Cook at a low
setting" ... in the last few days I've seen mention on a couple of TV
cooking shows that lead me to believe that the following may hold:
Medium corresponds to 350 degrees F
Medium-High corresponds to 375 degrees F
I have no idea if that's generally accepted or not. So, what's the
consensus here (right, like we're going to get a consensus!!) for:
High
Medium-High
Medium
Medium-Low
Low
Simmer
We'll leave it as an exercise for myself to determine what that means at my
altitude where water boils at about 195 degrees or so.
