Questions & Answers

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a rack in the pan?

A. Yes, Using the rack suspends the meat over the pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fail into the pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spat- ter and smoking,

Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?

A. No, Salt draws out the juices and allows them to evaporate, Always salt after cooking. Turn meat with tongs; piercing meat with a fork also allows juices to

escape. When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.,

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as they should?

A. Check to see if you are using the recommended shelf position, Broil for longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide Turn food only once during broil-

ing.

Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent meat from sticking?

A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent meat from sticking to the surface However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make cleanup easier
