Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct

temperature. Preheating is necessa_-v fi)r

good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and 1)reads.

Forovenswithout apreheat indicator light or
tone,preheat 10minutes.

Aluminum Foil

You can use ahmfinum flfil to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. However;
you must mold the fifil tightly to the grid

and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Aluminum foil mayalso be used tocatcha

spillover

Baking results will be better if baking pans

aI'e Celltered ii1 tile ovell as ill tlcl/as

possible. Pans should not touch each

other or the walls of the oven. If you need
to use r_x) shelves, stagger the pans so one

is not directly above the othe_; and leave
approMmately 1½" between pans, fl'om

the fl'ont, back and sides of the wall.

Never entirely cover a shelf with

ahmfinum toil. This Mll distu_4) the heat

dreulafion and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet offl)il may be used to

catch a spillover by plating it on a lower

shelf several inches below the food.
