3 When frozen foods are used the trays inserted may distort during cooking. This is due to the large difference in temperature between the freezing temperature and the tempera- ture in the oven. Once the trays have cooled the distortion will disappear again.
How to use the baking tables
The tables give the required temperature settings, baking times and oven shelf levels for a selection of typical dishes.
•Temperatures and baking times are for guidance only, as these will depend on the consistency of pastry, dough or mixture, the amount and the type of baking tin.
•We recommend using the lower temperature the first time and then if necessary, for example, if a deeper browning is required, or baking time is too long, selecting a high- er temperature.
•If you cannot find the settings for a particular recipe, look for the one that is most similar.
•If baking cakes on baking trays or in tins on more than one level, baking time may be extended by
•Moist recipes (for example, pizzas, fruit flans, etc.) are baked on one level.
•Cakes and pastries at different heights may brown at an uneven rate at first. If this oc- curs, please do not change the temperature setting. Different rates of browning even out as baking progresses.
•Your new oven may bake or roast differently to your previous appliance. So adapt your normal settings (temperature, cooking times) and oven shelf levels to the recom- mendations in the following tables.
2 With longer baking times, the oven can be switched off about 10 minutes before the end of baking time, to make use of the residual heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values given in the tables assume that cooking is started with the oven cold.
