Bake - Bosch HBL84 Use And Care Manual

Baking Pans and Dishes
• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven
temperature 25° F when baking using glass dishes.
• Preheat the oven before adding glass baking dishes.
• Use pans that provide the desired browning. For
tender, light, golden-brown crusts, use light, anodized
or shiny metal bakeware.
• Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will
absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust.
Some manufacturers recommend reducing the
temperature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow
manufacturers' recommendations.
• Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware will increase the
length of cooking time.
• Do not set any heavy object on the open oven door.
• Do not keep empty pans or pizza stones in the oven
during cooking as this could change the cooking
performance. Store pans outside the oven.
Opening the Oven Door
-- Open and close the appliance door only by holding the
door handle. To avoid risk of burns, do not touch any
other parts of the door.
High Altitude Baking
• When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking
times will vary.
• For accurate information, write the Extension Service,
Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado
80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify
which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer:
general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.
Condensation
• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to
evaporate from the food during any cooking process.
The amount depends on the moisture content of the
food. The moisture may condense on any surface
cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control
panel.

Bake
Bake is cooking with dry, heated air.
Both the upper and lower elements
%
cycle to maintain the oven
temperature.
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food
items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or
package directions for oven temperature and baking time.
Tips
• Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of
the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings
will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware
will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at
least 1 1/2" space between pans or dishes and oven
walls.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window
to periodically check food for doneness instead of
opening the door.
