Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for iL Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified temperature before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature--selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads_ For most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary° For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes, After the oven is preheated place the food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping.

Never cover the oven bottom

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil, This will disturb the heat circulation and result in

poor baking.. A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by

placing it on a lower shelf several inches

below the food..

Don't Peek

with aluminum foil.

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

. Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper crust, Use this type for pies.

•Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting

in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of pan..

•Glass baking dishes also absorb heat, When baking in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be reduced by 25°F (t3°C).

o If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find that you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F (13°C) to prevent over-browning.

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough room for air circulation in the oven.. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered as much as possible rather than being placed to the front or to the back of the oven,.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Allow 1- to 11/2-inch(2,5- to 4-cm) space between pans as welt as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides,. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes provide minimum and maximum baking times such as "bake 30-40 minutes."

DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently during cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking times longer. Your baking results may also be affected
