U
SING ALUMINUM FOIL FOR BAKING
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies
or casseroles:
•
Place the foil on the oven rack below the rack

for even heat to reach
all parts of the oven.
This results in better
baking.
•
Place the pans so
that one is not directly
over the other.

For best results, allow

with the food. Turn up
the foil edges and make
sure the foil is about
1 inch larger all around
than the dish holding
the food.
•
Do not cover the entire
rack with aluminum foil.
It will reduce air circula-
tion and give you poor
cooking results.
Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU HAVE
PLACE
1 pan
In center of the oven rack.
2 pans
Side by side or slightly
staggered.
3 or 4 pans
In opposite corners on
each oven rack. Stagger
pans so no pan is directly
over another.
•
Do not line the oven bottom or the entire oven rack
with foil or other liners. It could affect the quality of
your baking.
