Using the oven.
Type of Margarine Will Affect Baking Performance!
Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). Ifyou
decrease the fat, the recipe may not
give the same results as with a higher
fat product.
Recipefailurecan result if cakes,pies,
pastries,cookiesor candiesare made with
low fat spreads.Thelower the fat content
of a spreadproduct, themore noticeable
thesedifferencesbecome.
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 ofthese spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best results with your old favorite recipes,
use margarine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheatthe oven ifthe recipecalls for it.
Topreheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary for
good resultswhen baking cakes,cookies,
pastry and breads.
Onsome models, the display will show "PRE"
while preheating. Whenthe oven reachesthe
selectedtemperature, the ovencontrol will
beep and the display will show the oven
temperature.
Forovenswithout a preheat indicator light
or tone,preheat 10 minutes.
Bakingresultswill be better if baking
pans are centered inthe oven asmuch as
possible.Pansshould not touch each other
or the walls of the oven. If you need to use
two racks,stagger the puns so one is
not directly above the other,and leave
approximately 1½ from the front
of the pan to the front of the rack.
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottoms. The foil 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
Foil may 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.
