HINTS AND TIPS

l
Most cooking should be carried out using an
oven shelf positioned in one of the shelf runners.
l
Larger roasts and casseroles should normally be
cooked in the main oven. However, they may be
cooked on a flat shelf from the main oven placed
on the base of the top oven provided there is
sufficient room for air circulation around the food.
l
Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking tray on
the shelf to prevent spillage onto the oven base
and to help reduce cleaning.
l
There should always be at least 2.5cm (1")
between the top of the food and the element.
This gives best cooking results and allows room
for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings,
etc.
l
When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread, etc.,
place the tins or baking trays centrally on the
shelf directly below the element.
l
DO NOT place dishes directly onto the oven
base as it becomes very hot and damage may
occur.
l
The material and finish of the baking trays and
dishes will affect the degree of base browning of
the food. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick
utensils increase
aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat
away and give less base browning.
l
DO NOT use the grill pan as a baking tray as this
will increase base browning of the food.
l
Because of the smaller cooking space, lower
temperatures and shorter cooking times are
sometimes
recommendations on pages 21 and 22.
l
For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when placing
food into a pre-heated oven.

AUTOMATIC COOKING

If you use the automatic timer to cook food in the
top oven be guided by the recommendations
given below.
* It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
* When cooking is complete do not leave food to
stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly
if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
* Always ensure food in the oven is covered if its
not possible to remove food immediately after
cooking.
