Broiling is cooking by direct
heat from the upper element.,
BROIUNG
.The oven door should remain
opened to the broil stop lock
position during broiling.
It is not necessary to preheat the oven when
broiting_ Use the broiler pan and grid that
came with your range, Both are designed for
proper drainage of fat and liquids.
Foil must be molded tightly to
the grid and slits cut into the toil
to match those of the grid. This
allows fats and liquids to drain
into the broiler pan, preventing
fire and excessive smoke.
Always remove the pan
and grid from the oven.
Storing or forgetting a
soiled broiler pan in the
ovenis a potentiai smoke
or fire hazard.
The U.S, Department of Agriculture notes
that meat cooked rare is popular, but meat
cooked to only 140°F (rare) means that some
poisoning organisms may survive
Moving meats away from the element will allow
the meat to c'ook to the center while browning
on the outside. Using this positioning, cook
side I at least 2 minutes longer than side 2 If
your oven is connected to 208 volts, you may
want to use a higher rack position and/or broil
foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature
and your preference of the doneness of the meat
will affect broiling. This chart is based on
meats at refrigerator temperature.
RACK
POSITION
e Choose tender cuts of meat at least 3/4"
thick for broiling
o Trim the outer layer of fat, slit the edges to
keep meats from curling.
o Always use tongs to turn meats. Piercing
meat allows juices to escape°
,, Salt the first side of meats just before
turning, the second side just before serving.
Brush chicken and fish with butter several
times as they broil,
• Chicken and fish should be placed on the
grid skin side down.. For fish, light!y grease
