THE MAIN OVEN

USES OF THE MAIN OVEN

The main oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of food. The main oven also includes a Slowcook feature. It is important to refer to the main 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.
