Preheating
Preheat the oven if the redpe calls for it.
Preheat means bringing the oven up to the
specified temperature before putting the
food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven
at the correct temperature--selecting a
higher temperature does not shorten
preheat time.
Preheating is necessary for good rest_ts
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads. For most casseroles and roasts,
preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes. After the oven is
preheated, place the food in the oven
as quickly as possible to prevent heat
from escaping.
