Type of Hargarine Will Affect Baking Performance!
Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give
the same results as with a higher fat
product.
Recipefailure can result if cakes,pies,pastries,
cookiesor candies are made with low fat
spreads.The lower the fat content of a spread
product, the more noticeable these differences
become.
Federalstandards require products labeled
"margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by
weight. Low-fat spreads,on the other hand,
contain lessfat and more water. Thehigh
moisture content of these spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best resultswith your old favorite recipes,use
margarine, butter or stick spreads containing
at least 70% vegetable oil.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheatthe oven if the recipe callsfor it.
Topreheat, setthe oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating isnecessaryfor good
resultswhen baking cakes,cookies,pastry and
breads.
On some models,the display will show "PRE"
while preheating. When the oven reachesthe
selectedtemperature, theoven control will beep
and the display will show the oven temperature.
Forovens without a preheat indicator light
or tone, preheat !0 minutes.
Bakingresultswill be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as much as
possible.Pansshould not touch each other or
the walls of the oven. Ifyou need to use two
racks, stagger the pans so one is
not directly above the other, and leave
approximately !½" from the front
of the pun to the front of the rack.
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottoms. Thefoil will trap heat below and
upset the performance of the oven. Foil
can melt and permanently damage the
oven bottom. Damage from improper use of
aluminum foil is not covered by the product
warranty
Foilmay be used to catch spills by placing
a sheet on a lower rack, several inches
below the food .Do not use more foil than
necessary and never entirely cover an oven
rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least
1-1/2" from oven walls to prevent poor heat
circulation.
Ifyour range is connected
to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating
the broiler and positioning
the oven rack one position
higher.
