THE TOP OVEN
USES OF THE TOP OVEN
The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens.
It is convenient for smaller quantities or convenience foods. It is important to refer to the top oven cooking chart as a guide to shelf positions and gas mark settings as these may differ from previous cookers you may have used.
PREHEATING
It is not necessary to preheat the oven for casseroles.
For recipes needing high temperatures such as bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc. best results are achieved if the oven is preheated for 20 minutes.
When cooking or reheating frozen or chilled food read the instructions on the packaging.
