Pies

For best results, we pies in dark, rough or dull pans

inches below the food.

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
recommended, it maybe undercooked and batter may

ovefflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size

used is the one recommended.

Baking Pans

Use the proper bal@g pan. The type of ftih on
the pan determines the amount of browning that
will occur.

cDark, rough or d~ll pans absorb heat resulting in a

browner, crisper trust. Use this type for pies.

● Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect hex resulting

in a lighter, mor+elicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require @is type of pan.

● Glass baking dis es AJOabsorb heat. When baking

in glass baking shes, the temperature may need to

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 fkquently during
cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking times

longer. Yu baking results may also be affected.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats.
Therefore the oven controls am set for Baking or
Tii Baking. (Ya may hear a slight clicking sound
indicating the oven is working properly.) ‘IImed
Baking will turn the oven on and off automatically.

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing
after being removed from the oven. Recommended
standing time for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This
allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to
carve. The internal temperature will rise about 5° to

10”F.If you wish to compensate for the temperature
rise, remove the roast fkom the oven when its internal
temperature is 5° to 10”F.less than the temperature
shown in the Roasting Guide.

Remember that fd will continue to cook in the hot
oven and therefore should be removed when the

&sired internal temperature has been reached.
