What is an infrared thermometer? > Infrared thermometer is a [*instant read > thermometer*|https://ladydeep.net/the-best-instant-read-thermometer-for-cooking/]. > Infrared thermometers measure temperature by measuring infrared light > information. Food, ovens, and various objects emit some of the most invisible > infrared light, depending on how hot or cold that they were. By focusing the > light on a detector with the name "thermometer", infrared thermometers can > measure the temperature of any object exactly. > > Thankfully, you don't need to be an expert to enjoy the benefits of using an > infrared thermometer for cooking! They are heated through light rather than > being directly exposed to it. This benefit makes the infrared thermometers > fit for pizza ovens and other high temperature applications. > h2. Use infrared thermometer to cook > h3. Infrared thermometer > Infrared thermometers are extremely easy to use: Simply point the thermometer > at the object you want to measure, pull the trigger and read the report. > > However, depending on what you are measuring, you may need to be careful > where you are pointing! Since infrared thermometers only measure surface > temperatures, getting an accurate reading of oven and cookware temperatures > requires a bit of creativity. > h3. Measure oven and grill temperature > Place the pizza stone, griddle, or cast iron skillet in your oven and wait > for it to heat up. > Point the infrared thermometer at the pizza stone or another object once the > built-in thermometer in your oven or oven has reached the desired temperature. > Make sure that the infrared thermometer is pointed at the object and not > inside or around the surface, notice the area below the grill. > Continue to keep the thermometer activated while pointing at the subject > until the temperature reading stabilizes. > If using a cast iron pan, apply cooking oil or non-stick spray to increase > the accuracy of the result. > h3. Measuring cookware temperature > Start heating your skillet. > If measuring cookware without liquid, apply cooking oil or non-stick spray to > the inner surface before measuring. Point the infrared thermometer at the oil > and hold the trigger until the temperature reading is stable. > If measuring cookware with liquid, stir the liquid before measuring and > measure only a small sample in the ladle if possible. Point the infrared > thermometer at the liquid and hold the trigger until the temperature reading > is stable. > h2. Tips for infrared thermometers and other uses > Your infrared thermometer isn't just for cooking! Since all objects emit > infrared light, your infrared thermometer can also measure refrigerator > temperature, body temperature, and more. > > However, note that infrared thermometers only measure surface temperature, > not internal temperature. Therefore, if you want to measure the internal > temperature of an oven or refrigerator, you will need to measure an interior > surface such as a pizza stone. Similarly, infrared thermometers cannot > measure the internal temperature of foods, so you should still use probe > thermometers for steaks and similar foods. > {*}Website{*}: [https://ladydeep.net/] > {*}Facebook{*}: [https://www.facebook.com/LadydeepKC] > *Twitter:* [https://twitter.com/haucao09] > {*}Wordpress{*}: [https://orderhangnhatladydeep.wordpress.com/] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
