USES OF THE BOTTOM HEAT FUNCTION

This function can be used to finish off dishes that may require extra base heat or where base browning and crispness are required by pizzas or pies.

THE EFFECTS OF DISHES ON COOKING RESULTS

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc, which affects the way they transmit heat to the food inside them. The material and finish of the baking trays and dishes used will affect base browning.

•Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath browning.

•Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium, aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and underneath browning.

•Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.
