Useful tips
Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc
until they are golden brown. Do not
allow them to become dark brown.
Place cakes in
rectangular tins
with
the longer side across the width of the
oven for optimum heat distribution and
even results.
To achieve even results without
over-browning the food . . .
. . . when baking cakes, pastries, deep
frozen foods such as chips, croquettes,
frozen pizza, baguettes etc.
– always select the lowest temperature
given in the recipe/cooking
instructions on the packaging.
Do not set a temperature higher than
that recommended. Increasing the
temperature may reduce the cooking
time, but will lead to uneven
browning, and unsatisfactory
cooking results.
– Check if the food is cooked at the
end of the
shortest time quoted
.
To check if a cake is ready, insert a
wooden skewer into the centre.
It is ready if the skewer comes out
clean, without dough or crumbs
sticking to it.
– Place chips, croquettes and similar
types of food on
baking parchment
.
