Baking – Where to place the oven thermometer in an oven

Where to place an oven thermometer in a gas oven? Should it be left hanging from the rack or should it be placed on the rack?

Best Answer

I tend to just stick it close to where the food cooks. From the two options you name that would mean putting it on the rack, not hanging under it.

I checked a couple of sources and found this one quite a nice read.
