Baking

The roaster oven can bake your favorite cakes, pies, breads, or casseroles like a conventional oven. Pans and dishes should be placed on the rack for best heat circulation. Using the rack is also recommended for convenience in removing hot dishes and pans from the roaster oven.

Do not remove the lid of the roaster oven unless necessary. Removing the lid allows heat to escape and affects the temperature of the roaster oven.

Steaming

Preheat roaster oven to 450ºF (230ºC). To steam in the roaster oven, you will need a metal colander. Place rack in the insert pan. Place insert pan in roaster oven. Pour 1 quart (1 L) boiling

water into the insert pan. Place food to be steamed in the colander and place colander in insert pan. Cover and steam according to the following times or until desired doneness.

ITEM TO STEAM

AMOUNT OF TIME

 

 

2 cauliflower heads, cut up

10 minutes

2 bunches of broccoli, cut up

10 minutes

2 pounds (907 g) shrimp

10 minutes

 

 

Warming Rolls and Biscuits

Preheat roaster oven to 250ºF (120ºC). You will need two small ovenproof con- tainers to hold water. Emptied and washed food cans are perfect. Fill the cans two-thirds full with hot water and place in opposite corners of the insert pan.

Stack rolls, biscuits, or pancakes in insert pan. Do not let them touch sides of pan. Cover and keep warm up to one hour.

Quantity Cooking

The insert pan may be used as a large cooking utensil when cooking or heating large quantities. It may be used to simmer sauces, soups, or stews, or simply to heat or warm large quantities. When cooking or heating soups or stews in the roaster oven, stir occasion- ally for quicker, even heating.

For example, set the temperature control at 400°F (200ºC) and the roaster oven will warm vegetable beef soup from refrigerated temperature to serv- ing temperature in about two hours.

To cook soups, stews, or sauces, set the temperature control on 225°F (110ºC) and allow 4 to 8 hours to simmer, depending on recipe.
