USING YOUR RANGE
FOR BEST AIR CIRCULATION
Hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking.
•Place the pans so that one is not directly over the other.
•For best results, allow
•Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.
Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU HAVE | PLACE |
|
|
1 pan | In center of the oven rack. |
|
|
2 pans | Side by side or slightly |
| staggered. |
|
|
3 or 4 pans | In opposite corner on each |
| oven rack. Stagger pans |
| so no pan is directly over |
| another. |

USING ALUMINUM FOIL FOR BAKING
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or casseroles:
•Place the foil on the oven rack below the rack with the food. Turn up the foil edges and make
sure the foil is about
1 inch larger all around than the dish holding the food.
• Do not cover the entire rack with aluminum foil. It will reduce air circula- tion and give you poor cooking results.
•Do not line the oven bottom or the entire oven rack with foil or other liners. It could affect the quality of your baking.
