Preheating the oven
Most cooking times in recipes are designed for a pre-
¡
heated oven and require that the oven already be at a
certain temperature before cooking starts. Refer to your
recipe for preheating recommendations.
Preheating time depends on the temperature setting
¡
and the number of racks in the oven. Remove unused
oven racks to shorten the preheat time.
Preheating is not necessary for ROAST and CONV
¡
ROAST.
Bakeware type
Metal bakeware with or without a non-stick finish, heat-
¡
proof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery, or other utensils are
suitable for the oven.
Suitable cookie sheets have a small lip on one side.
¡
Heavy sheets or those with more than one side may af-
fect the baking time.
Pan placement
Allow at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space between the pans
¡
and the oven walls so heat can circulate around each
pan.
Stagger all bakeware except cookie sheets so that one
¡
is not directly above another. Allow 1½" (4 cm) above
and below each pan.
High altitude baking
When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times
will vary. For accurate information, go to
