Broiling - Electrolux 318 200 936 (0411) Rev. A Use & Care Manual

BROILING

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the
broil element of the oven.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. (Remove the broiler pan
before preheating. Foods will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the
control(s) to BROIL as instructed in this manual. Wait for the element to
become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when
broiling meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side.
Season and serve. Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning
or removing food.
Broiling Tips
The broiler pan and it grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.
Broiling Times
Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or
decrease broiling times, or move the broiling pan to a different rack
position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the
table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item
closely.

DO NOT use the pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The exposed grease could
ignite.

continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour
on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
