Tips for Bake

Preheating the Oven

Preheat the oven before baking. The oven does not need to be preheated for large pieces of meat or poultry. See your recipe for preheating recommendation. Preheating time depends on the temperature setting and the number of racks in the oven.

Getting the Best Results

Minimize opening the door:

Use a minute timer.

Use the interior oven light.

Choose the right size bakeware; use the bakeware recommended in the recipe.

Store the broiler pans outside the oven. An extra pan without food, affects the browning and cooking.

The type of pan used affects the browning:

For tender, golden brown crusts, use light non- stick/anodized or shiny metal utensils.

For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/ anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bakeware. These may require lowering the bake temperature 25°F.

Bakeware Type

Metal bakeware (with or without a non-stick finish), heat-proof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery, or other utensils are suitable for the oven.

Suitable cookie sheets have a small lip on one side only. Heavy sheets or those with more than one side may affect the baking time.

Gliding Oven Racks

Your Thermador range includes three extendable, gliding racks that can be pulled out and pushed back into the oven with minimum effort - even while supporting a large turkey or roast. If yours is a 48” model, the secondary oven of your range also has two gliding racks.

Placing racks in oven: To insert racks into the oven, hold the rack with the back rail up toward the back. Place the safety hooks under the front of the rail guides. Push the rack into the oven, lifting the rack
