Cooking Information

Setting and cooking times

These are given as a guide for best results. However, vary the temperature and cooking times to suit the foods prepared and the personal tastes of your family.

Omission or addition of ingredients to the recipes will alter the suggested cooking times, and adjustments should be made accordingly – your own imagination will personalise these recipes.

Many recipes in your files or cookbooks are perfectly suitable for cooking in this appliance. Check first to see if there is a similar recipe in this book, then follow accordingly.

Measurements

All cup and spoon measurements are level.

Recipes have been tested using Australian Standard Metric Cup and Spoon

Measurements. Australian Standard Metric measuring utensils are available at large departmental stores. There are four measuring spoons: tablespoon, teaspoon, half teaspoon and quarter teaspoon. Also there are four fractional metric measuring cups: full, half, third and quarter, for measuring dry ingredients. As well there is a metric cup and a litre measure for liquid measurement.

Ingredients

Most ingredients in this book are given in volume (cups and spoons). Ingredients such as meat, butter and margarine are given by weight (kilograms or grams).

Chicken sizes are given in metric numbers. Packets of butter or margarine may be divided by length and width with sufficient accuracy for cookery. It is essential to

thoroughly thaw frozen foods unless otherwise stated in recipes in a refrigerator prior

to cooking. Just before cooking, wipe off excess moisture with paper towelling. DO NOT RE-FREEZE THAWED FOODS BEFORE COOKING.
