BROILING

Broiling Is cooking by direct heat from the broil burner. Tender cuts of meat or marinated meat should be selected for broiling. For best results steaks and chops should be at least 3/4" thick.

After piecing food on the broiler pan, put the pan on the rack In the lower broiler compartment. The recommended rack position and cooking time can be found In the chart at dght.

The closer the food Is to the broil burner, the faster the meat browns on the outside, yet stays red to pink Inthecenter. Moving the meat fart her away from the burner lets the meat cook to the center white brown- Ing outside. Side one should be cooked I - 2 minutes longer than side two.

Use only the broiler pan and grid that came with your range for broiling. They are designed for proper

drainage of fat and liquids and help prevent spatter, smoke or fire.

Do not preheat when broiling. Preheating may cause the thermostat to cycle the broil burner off and on. For even broiling on both sides, 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;

Brush 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 fish.

Never leave a soiled broiler pan In the range. Grease

in t he pan may smoke or burn t he next time the oven is used.

Be sure you know the correct procedure for putting out a grease fire. See the section on safety.

The removable roll-out broiler drawer should never be used as a storage compartment. Cookware, -bakeware,plastics, flammable materials, or any other Items, could catch fire resulting in serious

burns.

Do not cover the entire broiler grid with foil. Poor drainage of hot fat may cause a broiler fire.

if a fire starts, close the oven door and turn controls off. If fire contin- ues, throw baking soda on the fire. Do not put water on the fire.
