COOKING GUIDES
NOTE: Rack positions are numbered from 1 at the bottom to 5 at the top.
 For optimum cooking keep edges of baking dishes and pans at least 4cm from the sides of the
oven. This allows free heat circulation and ensures even cooking.
 Where possible remove large cuts of meat 1kg or over from the fridge 1 hour prior to cooking.
Allow, to stand covered and away from direct sun/heat. This process will take the “chill” of the
fridge away from the food and assist in more even cooking.
Cooking Pizza
For the best results when cooking pizza use the Lower and Upper Heat Element function (Convection) and
the lowest oven shelf position.
Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes.
 Use a non-stick pizza pan, ideally one with holes in the base specifically for pizza cooking.
 Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is cooking.
 If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four), it is recommended that the mozzarella cheese be
placed on top halfway through the cooking process. Remember the best pizzas are made with a
less is best method when choosing the topping ingredients.
 Check the base is crispy by lifting the pizza pan from the oven with a heatproof glove and lifting
the pizza with an oven slide to look at the pizza base. Return to oven if further cooking is required.
