Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks
to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat
yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20-40°F.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higherfat product
Recipe failure can result ff cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the
fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled
"I//_lI'g_lI'ille" to ('ont_lin
at least 80% tilt by weight. Ixm' tilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water; The high moisture content of these spreads affects tile texture and flavor
at baked goods. For best results with veto" old tm'orite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
