Use only the broiler pan and grid that came with your
range for broiling.
They are designed
for proper
drainage of fat and tlqulds and help prevent spatter,
smo}_.e or fire.
°
Do nor p_'eheat when b_'oi_ing. Foreven broiling
on both sldes, start the food on a cold pan.
Trim the outer layer of fat from steaks and chops. Slit
the fatty edges to keep the meat from curling.
For maximum juiciness,
salt the first side just before
turning the meat.
Salt the second side just before
serving.
•
Bnlsh chicken and fish with butter several times as
they broil,
When broiling
fish, grease the grid to
prevent sticking and broil with skin side down. It Is
not necessary to turn flsh_
.
Never' _eave a so,Hod broite_' par, in the range,
Grease In the pan may smoke or burn the next time
the oven Is used.
After placing food on the broiler pan and grid, put the
pan on an oven rack In the proper position, The recom-
mended rack position and cooking time can be found tn
the chart below, if your range Is connected to 208 volts
you may want to use a higher position.
The closer the food Is to the broil element, the faster the
meat browns on the outside, yet stays red to pink In the
center. Moving the meat farther away from the element
lets the meat cook to the center while browning outside.
Side one should be cooked 1 - 2 minutes longer than
side two.
