TO USE THE OVEN FOR SLOW COOKING OR LOW TEMPERATURES

The oven can be used to keep hot food hot, to dehydrate food, to warm plates, for slow cooking (as in a crock pot), and to defrost foods.

You can keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature. Set the oven to the temperature suggested in the chart. Rare meat must be eaten when it is removed from the oven, as it continues cooking from its own heat.

To keep food moist, it must be covered with aluminum foil or a lid.

To dehydrate food, follow suggestions in a recipe.

To warm plates, check with the dishware manufacturer for the temperature for the recommended.

To use the oven as a slow cooker set the oven control knob to 225ºF, place the food in the oven in a pan with a tight fitting lid. Follow recipes for this type of cooking.

To thaw uncooked frozen food, set the oven control knob for 150ºF. Be sure the food is tightly wrapped in foil. Thaw the food just enough to handle it. Cook immediate- ly. Do not refreeze.

To thaw frozen cooked food, set the oven control knob to 170ºF. Loosen the freezer wrapping. Do not use plastic wrap or wax paper in the oven.
