ROASTmG

Do not lock the oven door with the door latch during roasting. This is used for self-cleaning only.

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

The oven has a special low shelf (R) position just above the oven bottom. Use it when extra cooking space is needed, for example, when roasting a large turkey. The shelf is not

desig~ed to slide out at this position.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or Timed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound, indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed Baking will turn the oven on and off automatically.

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing, after being removed from the oven. The standing time recommended for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. The internal temperature will rise about 5° to 10°F.; to compensate for the temperature rise, if desired, remove the roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10”F. less than the temperature in the Roasting Guide).

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when the desired internal temperature has been reached.

1.Position the oven at shelf (B) position for small size roast (3 to 5 lbs.) and at

(R)position for larger roasts.

The oven will start automatically. The word “ON” and “100°” will be displayed. As the oven heats up, the display will show the changing temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will sound.

2.Check the weight of the meat. Place the meat fat-side- up, or poultry breast-side-up, on roasting rack in a shallow pan. The melting fat will baste the meat. Select a pan as close to the size of the meat as possible. (The broiler pan with rack is a good pan for this.)

To change the oven temperature during the roasting cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to get the new temperature.

4.Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the desired temperature is displayed.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan. This makes clean-up easier when using the pan for marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily cured meats or basting food during cooking. Press the foil tightly around the inside of the pan.

Dual Shelf Cooking

This allows more than one food to be cooked at the same time.

For example: while roasting a 20 lb. turkey on shelf (R) a second shelf may be added on position D so that scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same time. Calculate the total cooking time to enable both dishes to complete cooking at the same time. Allow 15–20 minutes of additional cooking time.
