Food Selection

Quantity – The cooking time is dependent on the amount of food in the oven. Note: A small amount of food, i.e. 4 T. butter, will take longer to heat be- cause the oven cavity is large compared to the small amount of food.

Content – The amount of fat, sugar and liquid in the food affects the cooking time. For example, eggs, cheese, mayonnaise, etc., cook very quickly.

Density – A non-porous food, such as roast, takes longer to cook than a porous food such as bread.

Shape and Size – Uniform shapes and sizes cook more evenly.

Cooking Techniques

Arranging – Place food in a circular pattern with the thickest areas toward the outside of dish.

Covering – Most foods cook and reheat more evenly when covered.

Shielding – Cover thinner areas of food with foil to prevent over-cooking or defrosting too quickly, i.e. chicken drumsticks. Do not wrap baking pota- toes in foil.

Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven.

Stirring andTurning – Stir foods from the outer edges toward center of utensil or turn food over once during cooking.

Standing Time – It is necessary to allow food to stand to complete cooking.
