COOKING TIPS

Cookware

● Use medium-or heavy-weight cookware. Aluminum

cookware conducts heat faster than other metals. Cast-iron and coated cast-iron cookware are slow to absorb heat, but generally cook evenly at low to medium heat settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined with other metals.

● For best cooking results pans should be flat on the

bottom. Match the size of the saucepan to the size of the surface unit. The pan should not extend over the edge of the trim ring more than l“.

HOME CANNING TIPS

Canning should be done on surface units only.

Pots

that extend beyond one inch of surface unit’s drip pan are not recommended for most surface cooking. However, when canning with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used.

This is because boiling water temperatures (even

under pressure) are not harmful to cooktop surfaces surrounding the surface unit.

Observe the Following Points in Canning

1. Be sure the canner fits over the center of the

surface unit. If your range or its location does not

allow

the canner to be centered on the surface unit,

use smaller-diameter pots for good canning results.

2. For best results, use canners with flat bottoms. Canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) don’t make good contact with the surface unit and take a long time to boil water.

Flat-bottomed canners are recommended.

HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE DIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE DIAMETER POTS FOR FRYING OR BOILING FOODS OTHER THAN WATER. Most syrup or sauce and all types of frying—cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water. Such temperatures could eventually harm cooktop surfaces surrounding

surface units.

3. When canning, use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and procedures are available from the manufacturer of your canner; manufacturers of glass jars for canning,

Ball and Kerr; and the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

4. Remember that canning is a process that generates large amounts of steam. To avoid burns from steam or heat, be careful when canning.

NOTE: If your house has low voltage, canning may take longer than expected, even though directions have been carefully followed.

The process time will be shortened by:

(1)

using a pressure canner, and (2) starting with HOT tap water for fastest heating of large quantities of water.

(on some models)

To Set the Clock

To set the clock, push the knob in and turn the clock hands to the correct time. (The

Minute Timer pointer will

move also. Let the knob out, then turn the Minute Timer pointer to OFF.)

Questions and Answers

Q. Must the clock be set on correct time of

day when I wish to use the Automatic Timer for baking?

A. Yes, if you wish to set the DELAY START or

STOP TIME dials (on some models) to turn on and off at set times during timed functions.

Q. Can I use the Minute Timer during oven cooking? A. The Minute Timer can be used during any cooking

function. The Automatic Timers (DELAY START and STOP TIME dials) are used with TIMED BAKE function only.

Minute Timer

The Minute Timer has been combined with the range clock. Use it to time all your precise cooking operations. You’ll recognize the Minute Timer as the pointer which is different in color and shape than the clock hands.

To Set the Minute Timer

To set the Minute Timer, turn the center knob,

without pushing in, until pointer reaches number of

minutes you wish to time. (Minutes are marked,

60, in the center ring on the clock.) At the end of the

set time, a buzzer sounds to tell you time is up.

Turn knob,

OFF and buzzer stops.

Q. Can I change the time of day on the clock

while I’m Time Baking in the oven?

A. The time of day on the clock should not be

changed during any program that uses the oven timer. You must either stop those programs or wait until they are finished before changing time.

Before Using Your Oven

1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how

to set them properly. Read over the directions for the Automatic Timer and Clock so you understand its use with the controls.

2. Check oven interior. Look at the shelves. Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.

3. Read over information and tips that follow.

4. Keep this book handy so you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

Oven Controls

The oven has two control OVEN TEMP and OVEN SET. The OVEN SET knob has settings for

Adjusting the Oven Thermostat

(continued)

Use the time given on a recipe when cooking the first time. Oven thermostats, in time, may “drift” from the factory setting and differences in timing

between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. If you find that your foods consistently brown too little or too much, you may make a simple adjustment in the thermostat (OVEN TEMP) knob.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in the grocery

store, to check the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers vary by 20-40 degrees.

Pull the knob off the shaft, look at the back of the knob and note the current setting before making any adjustment. The knob is factory set with the top

screw directly under the pointer.

For best baking results, follow these suggestions:

Oven Shelves

BAKING

(continued)

Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the desired locations while

the oven is cool. The correct shelf position depends

the kind of

food and the browning desired. As a

general

rule. place most foods in the middle of the oven, on either the second or third shelf from the bottom. See the chart for suggested shelf positions.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified temperature before putting in the food. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature—selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Type of Food

Angel food cake

Biscuits or muffins B or C Cookies or cupcakes Brownies, Layer cakes

I Bundt or~ound cakes

Pies or pie shells B or C Frozen pies Casseroles Roasting A or B

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes. After the oven is preheated place the food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping.

Shelf Position

B orC

B or C B or C

A orB

A (on cookie sheet) B or C

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

● Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a

browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

● Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting

in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and sugar cookies require this type of pan.

● Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking

in glass baking dishes, lower the temperature by

25”F.

and use the recommended cooking time in the recipe. This is not necessary when baking pies or casseroles.

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered as much as possible rather than being placed to the front or to the back of the oven.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Allow 1 to 1 M inch space between pans as well as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. If you use two shelves stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

Page 13

Baking Guides

When using prepared baking mixes, follow recipe or instructions for best results.

When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.

Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the

walls or the door of the oven.

For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.

Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

Aluminum Foil

Never entirely cover a shelf with a large cookie sheet

or aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a on a lower rack several inches below the food.

spillover

by placing it

Cakes

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause uneven baking results and poorly shaped products. A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than recommends, it may be undercooked and batter may overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size used is the one recommended.

Don’t Peek

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do

not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes provide minimum and maximum baking times such as “bake 30-40 minutes.”

DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently during

cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking times longer. Your baking results may also be affected.

Page 14

ROASTING

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set to BAKE or TIMED BAKE. (You may hear a slight clicking sound, indicating the oven is working properly.)

Roasting is easy; just follow these steps: Step 1: Position in oven on shelf in

A or B position.

No preheating is necessary.

Step 2: Check weight of meat, and place,

fat-

side-up, or

poultry

breast-

side-up, on roasting rack in a shallow pan. The melting fat will baste the meat.

Select a pan as close to the size of the meat as possible. (Broiler pan with rack is a good pan for this.) Line broiler pan with aluminum foil when using pan for marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily cured meats, or for basting food during

cooking. Avoid spilling these materials inside the

oven door.

Step 3:

Turn OVEN SET to BAKE and OVEN TEMP to

325”F.

Small poultry may be cooked at

375”F.

Step 4: Most meats continue to cook slightly while

standing, after being removed from the oven.

Standing time recommended for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. Internal temperature will rise about 5° to 10”F.; to compensate for temperature rise, if desired, remove roast from oven sooner (at 5° to

10”F. less than temperature in the guide). NOTE: You may wish to use TIMED BAKE, as

described in the Baking section of this book, to turn oven on and off automatically.

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when the desired internal temperature has been reached.

Frozen Roasts

● Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started

without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

● Thaw most frozen poultry before roasting to ensure

even doneness. Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked successfully without thawing. Follow directions given on package label.

Questions and Answers

Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a

meat thermometer?

A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the

completion of cooking time is recommended. Temperatures are shown in Roasting Guide. For roasts over

lbs., check with thermometer at

half-

hour intervals after half the time has passed.

Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to

carve it?

A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to

20 minutes after removing from oven. Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.

I need to preheat my oven each time I cook a

roast or poultry?

A. It

is unnecessary to preheat your oven.

Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips

hat would help me cook it more evenly?

A. Yes.

Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,

or buy

roasts.

Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when

roasting a turkey?

A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving

it unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown the meat.

BROILING

Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper unit in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts

of meat can be broiled. Follow these steps to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.

Step 1: If meat has fat or gristle near edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2“ apart. If desired, fat may be trimmed, leaving layer about 1/8” thick.

Step

Place meat on broiler rack in broiler pan. Always use rack so fat drips into broiler pan; otherwise juices may become hot enough to catch fire.

Step

Position shelf on recommended shelf position as suggested in Broiling Guide. Most broiling is done on C position, but if your range is connected to 208 Volts, you may wish to use a higher position.

Step

Leave door open to the broil stop

position. The door

stays open by itself, yet the

the oven.

Step

Turn OVEN SET and OVEN TEMP knobs to BROIL. Preheating units is not necessary. (See notes in

Broiling Guide.) Step 6: Turn food only once during broiling. Time

foods for first side per Broiling Guide. Turn food, then use times given for second side as a

guide to preferred doneness. (Where two thicknesses and times are given together, use first times given for thinnest food.)

Step 7: When

and OVEN TEMP

knob to OFF. Serve food immediately, leaving the broiler pan and rack outside oven to cool during meal for easiest cleaning.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack, However, you must mold the foil tightly to the rack and cut slits in it just like the rack.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining to the broiler pan. The juices could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you

do not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.

Questions & Answers

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a

rack in the pan?

A. Yes.

the juices fall into the pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.

period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.

Turn food only once during broiling.

Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent

meat from sticking?

A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler

heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make cleanup easier.

1. Always use broiler pan and rack that comes with

your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

Oven door should be open to the broil stop

position. (see Broiling section)

3. For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around

outside edges of meat. To slash, cut crosswise through outer fat surface just to the edge of the meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent piercing meat and losing juices.

If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.

When arranging food on pan, do not let fatty edges hang over sides, which could soil oven with fat dripping.

6. Broiler does not need to be preheated. However, for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.

Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking time given in this guide 1

times per side.

If your range is connected to 208 Volts, rare steaks

may be

bro~led

by preheating the broiler and

positioning the oven shelf one position higher.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR:

Inside of door:

● Soap and water will normally

do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content

(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie

filling) to remain on

the

surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

● Household ammonia may make

the cleaning job easier. Place

1/2 cup in a shallow glass or

pottery container in a cold oven

overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

● If necessary, you may use

an oven cleaner. Follow package directions.

Outside of door:

●

Use soap and water to thoroughly

clean the top, sides and front of the oven. DO NOT let water run down through openings in the top

of the door. Rinse well. You may

also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door.

● Spillage of marinades, fruit

juices, tomato sauces and basting

materials containing acids may

cause discoloration and should be

wiped up immediately. When

surface is cool, clean and rinse.

● Do not use oven cleaners,

cleansing powders or harsh

abrasives on the outside of

the door.

Porcelain Oven Interior

With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the

inside of the oven—top, bottom, sides, back and inside

of the door—will stay new-looking for years.

Let range cool before cleaning. We recommend that

you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the range. Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy

If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow package directions.

Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:

●

not

spray on the electrical controls and switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.

● Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on

the temperature sensor—it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.

●

not

spray any oven cleaner on the oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Oven Lamp Replacement

CAUTION: Before replacing your oven lamp bulb, disconnect the electric power for your range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the plug.

Be sure to let the lamp cover and bulb cool completely before removing or replacing them. When in use, light bulbs

can become warm enough to break if touched with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid touching warm lamps with cleaning cloths if the

lamp cover is removed. The oven lamp (bulb) is covered with a glass

removable cover which is held in place with a wire. Remove the oven door, if desired, to reach the cover easily.

)

To remove:

●

Hold your hand under the cover so it doesn’t fall

when released. With fingers of the same hand, firmly push back the wire until it clears the cover. Lift off the cover.

DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS.

●

Replace bulb with 40-watt home appliance bulb.

To replace cover:

●

Place it into the groove of the lamp receptacle. Pull

the wire forward to the center of cover until it snaps

in place. When in place, the wire holds the cover firmly. Be certain the wire is in the depression in the center of the cover.

●

Connect electric power to the range.

Broiler Pan and Rack

After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven.

Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully pour out the grease in the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the pan and rack in hot soapy water.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack while hot, with detergent and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth. That way, burned-on foods will soak loose while the meal is being served.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack in the oven.

Oven Shelves

Shelves can be cleaned by hand using soap and water or with an abrasive cleanser.

After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry. To remove heavy, burned-on soil, you may use scouring pads. After scrubbing, wash with soapy water, rinse and dry. Shelves may also be cleaned in self-cleaning oven, but will discolor and lose some luster. See the Self-Cleaning section.
