Convenience Foods Toasting

Today there are many varieties of packaged convenience food available, both frozen and non-frozen (shelf pastry) that can be toasted in your toaster.

Since toaster foods and individual tastes vary, it is difficult to recommend exact Toast Color Control Settings, however, after a little experimentation you will discover the best setting for your needs. You may also wish to refer to the heating instructions on food packaging.

Pastry

For best results, follow the instructions printed on the pastry package. If the package does not have instructions, position the Toast Color Control Knob in the middle of the toast color scale. Some pastries may require a second toasting cycle.

NOTE: Do not use this Toaster for toasting pastry items with runny- type frosting or open fillings.

Non-Frozen Shelf Pastry

Move the Toast Color Control Knob to a lighter setting. For thicker convenience foods, it may be necessary to adjust the Toast Color Control Knob to the right for a longer toasting cycle.

Frozen Foods

Move the Toast Color Control Knob to a darker color setting. Due to variation in size and density, frozen items will require different settings. Moving the Toast Color Control Knob to the right will provide a longer toasting cycle.

Thawing frozen foods before toasting will help ensure that the inside of the food is heated and will prevent the outside from burning. Again, experimentation is the best way to accommodate individual tastes and food choices.
