Jack Stein’s ultimate cookery hack takes all the guess work out of cooking and will give you the confidence to enjoy a wider range of recipes at home.

How to use a fish/meat probe?
When probing, simply insert the probe into the thickest part of the meat or fish and allow the reading to stabilise to ensure all areas of the protein are cooked through.
For fish off the bone (fillets), you want to aim for an internal temperate of around 50°C and for steak, 55°C is rare, 60°C medium and 70°C+ for well done.
