They do the oven in Celsius and also mention "fan", so if your oven doesn't have a fan you'd need a different temperature anyway (I think I saw that online their recipes tell you both fan/not fan)
Castor sugar is apparently slightly less coarse than regular sugar, but isn't powdered sugar?
If I had no job and more spoons on a consistent basis I would really love to tackle watching GBBO from S1 and backing every dish made.
Castor sugar is, I think, superfine sugar. Strong flour is bread flour. My oven has a fan because it has a convection setting. I have not tried to make a single recipe from the show, but I'm fascinated by it.
I don't think I'd ever try any of those recipes ... but I have one of those brains that WANTS TO KNOW (if you know what I mean).
Every time I look up a recipe, I remember that the official ones are British, and I don't have a kitchen scale, so I skip it again.
Jesse, I believe I have more than one. I'll take a look.
Thank you, but I am fine with Imperial measurements and American recipes!
Someone once commented that if the U.S. ever went metric the only people who'd be familiar with the measurements were scientists and drug dealers.
Any Top Chef watchers still? Sad news.
