Baking Guide

1.Preheating is very important when using tem- peratures below 225°F. and when baking foods such as biscuits, cookies, cakes and other pas- tries. Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes,.

Preheating is not necessary when roasting or for long- time cooking of whole meals.

2.Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly., For most con- ventional baking, light, shiny finishes give best results

because they help prevent overbrowning. For best browning results, we recommend cake pans and pie plates with dull bottom surfaces..

3.Dark or non-shiny finishes and glass cookware generally absorb heat, which may result in dry, crisp crusts. Reduce oven heat 25°E if lighter crusts are desired. Rapid browning of some foods can be achieved by preheating cast iron cookware.

Comments

Canned, refrigerated biscuits take 2 to 4 minules less time

Preheat cast iron pan for crisp crust

Decrease about5 minules for muffin mix or bake at 450_F. for 25 minutes, then at 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes

Dark metal or glass gives deepest browning

Two-piece pan is convenient. Line pan with wax paper.

Paper Finersproduce moister crusts Use 300=F and Shelf B for small or

individual cakes.

If baking four layers, use Shelves B and D.

Bar cookies from mix use same time Use Shelf C and increase tempera- ture 25 to 50°F for mere browning

Reduce temperature to 300_'F for large custard

Cook bread or rice pudding with custard base 80 to 90 minutes.

Large pies use 400°F and more time To quickly brown meringue, use 400°E for 9 to 11 minutes Custard fillings require lower tem- perature and longer time.

Increase time for farge amount or size
