Broiling is cooking food by direct heat from above the food. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow
these steps to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.
Your range has a compartment below the oven for broiling. A specially designed broiler pan allows dripping fat to
drain away from the food.
Both the oven door and broiler compartment drawer should be closed during broiling.

You can use aluminum foil to line your
broiler pail and broiler grid. Howevei;
you must mold tile foil dghtly to tile pan
and cut slits in the foil to open all slots
in the grid.
Aluminunl frill may a/so be used to catch
a spillover To do so, place a small sheet
of foil on a lower shelf several inches
below the food.
Never endrely cover a shelf with
aluminunl foil. This will disturb tile heat
circulation and result in poor baking.
