General Guidelines for Operating Personnel

COOK TIMES AND TEMPERATURES Preheating the oven

Always preheat the oven before baking or roasting. We recommend preheating 50_F (10_C) above the cook temperature to offset the drop in temperature when the doors are opened and cold product is loaded into the oven. Set the thermostat to the cook temperature after the product is loaded.

NOTE: For frozen product, preheat the oven 100_F (38_C) above the cook tempera- ture.

Cook Temperatures

Generally, cook temperatures should be 50_F (10_C) lower than deck or range oven recipes. If the edges of the product are done but the center is raw, or if there is color variation, reduce the ther- mostat setting another 15---25_F (10---15_C). Con- tinue to reduce the cook temperature on succes- sive loads until the desired results are achieved.

NOTE: Cooking at excessive temperatures will not reduce cook time, it will produce un- satisfactory baking and roasting results.

Cook Time

Check the product in about half the time recom- mended for deck or range oven recipes. Record times and temperatures which provide best re- sults for future reference.

NOTE: Cook time will vary with the amount of product loaded, the type of pan and the temperature.

OPERATING TIPS

Pans and Racks

Product or pan height determines how many racks are used. The oven holds up to nine 18” x 26” (45.7 x 66.0 cm) bun pans.

Load the oven from the bottom, centering the pans on the rack. Never place a pan or aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven. This obstructs the flow of air and results in uneven baking and roasting.

Roasting

To reduce shrinkage when roasting, place meat directly on the racks. Place a sheet pan one-half full of water in the bottom rack position. The water evaporates, increasing humidity in the oven chamber. The pan catches grease from the meat, making oven cleaning easier.

Baking

Weigh the product to ensure equal distribution in each pan. Varying amounts of product will cause uneven baking results.

Fans

The fan must be operating for the oven to heat. Use the Pulse Plus feature to allow light or liquid product to set in the pan and to avoid rippling to- wards the fan. If your oven is not equipped with this feature use the following procedure.

1.Preheat the oven 25_F (15_C) above the bak- ing temperature.

2.Load the oven with product. Close the doors.

3.Set the thermostat to the baking temperature.

4.Turn the oven off.

5.Allow the product to set for 5---7 minutes with the fan off. The residual heat in the oven sets the product.

6.Turn the oven on for the remainder of the bake.
