4
Tips
●
Preheat the oven only when
necessary. Most foods will cook
satisfactorily without preheating.
If you find preheating is necessary,
listen for the beep and put food in
the oven promptly after the oven is
preheated.
Always turn oven OFF before
removing food.
●
During baking, avoid frequent
door openings. Keep door open
as short a time as possible if it
is opened.
●
Cook complete oven meals
instead of just one food item.
Potatoes, other vegetables and
some desserts will cook together
with a main-dish casserole, meat
loaf, chicken or roast. Choose
foods that cook at the same
temperature and in approximately
the same time.
●
Use residual heat in oven
whenever possible to finish
cooking casseroles, oven meals,
etc. Also add rolls or precooked
desserts to warm oven, using
residual heat to warm them.
