BROILING

NOTES:

•Do not preheat when broiling, unless your recipe recommends it.

•Leave the door partly open whenever you use the oven to broil. This lets the oven stay at the proper temperatures.

1.Place the rack where you need it.

You need to place the rack so that the surface of the food is at least 3 inches away from the broil element. See “Broiling guidelines” later in this section.

Front of rack

Rear of rack

2. Put your food on the broiler pan and place the pan in the center of the oven rack.

3.Close the door to the broil stop position.

The broil stop position lets the door stay open by itself about 5 inches.
