How the conversion works
The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is:
°C = (°F − 32) × 5/9
Applied to 400°F:
- 400 − 32 = 368
- 368 × 5/9 = 204.4°C
What is 400°F used for in cooking?
400°F (204.4°C) is the roasting temperature — hot enough to brown chicken thighs, blister vegetables, and bake frozen fries until crisp. Recipes that want color and crunch (sheet-pan dinners, roasted potatoes, hash) almost always land on 400°F / 200°C, which is the easy mental conversion: just halve it and add 30.
