GENERAL
RULES
•
When cooking a food for the first time in your new
oven, use time given on recipes as a guide°
Your new oven has been set correctly at the factory
and Is more accurate than the oven It replaced.
After you have used your oven for awhile, tf you feei
your oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust
It yourself. See TEMPERATURE
ADJUSTMENTS
In this manual.
:
NO PEEKING--
Opening the doortoo
often tocheck
food
during baking will allow heat loss and may
cause poor baking results.
.
There may be some odorwhen the oven Is first used.
This Is caused
by the heating of new parts and
Insulation.
•
Do not cover an entire oven rack with foil. The foil
can block normal heat flow and cause poor baking
results. Do not place any foil directly above the bake
element.
Foil used on the oven bottom under the
element may damage the oven surface; therefore, it
should not be used.
not lock the oven Ioc_Junlock
handle while
baking.
The oven lock/unlock
handle Is used for
self-clean only.
PREHF.ATJNG
When recipes require preheating, have food
nearby
before you open
the oven door. If the oven door Is
allowed to remain open for more than a brief time,
the preheat temperature
will be lost.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly
before
cooking
baked products. Llstenforpreheat
notlficatlontone
(If equipped) or watch for the Indicator light to go off.
If your range does not have either of these features,
preheat for 10 minutes and put the food lntheoven.
BAKEWARE
•
Cookies should be baked on liar cookie sheets
without
sides to allow the air to circulate properly.
.
Cakes, muffins, and quick breads should be baked
in shiny pans -- to reflect the heat -- because they
should have a light golden crust. Yeast breads and
pie crusts should be baked In glass or dull (non-
shiny) pans -- to absorb the heat -- because they
should have a brown, crisp crust.
.
Be sure the underside
of the pan is shiny, too.
Darkened undersides will absorb the heat and may
cause over-browning
on the bottom of your food.
°
Oven temperatures
should be reduced 25 degrees
below recommended temperatures if exterlor of pan
is predarkened,
darkened
by age or oven proof
glass.
