• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe
for best results.
• For roasting, Dacor’s optional “V” shaped rack and
broil/roast pan works best to allow air circulation
around the food. Dacor’s roasting pan works particu-
larly well and two of them will fit side by side in a
30-inch oven. The kit also comes with a grill that fits
inside the pan to cook flat cuts of meat.
High Altitude Cooking
Due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher alti-
tudes, foods tend to take longer to cook. Therefore, recipe
adjustments should be made in some cases. In general,
no recipe adjustment is necessary for yeast-risen baked
goods, although allowing the dough or batter to rise twice
before the final pan rising develops a better flavor. Try
making the adjustments below for successful recipes. Take
note of the changes that work best and mark your reci-
pes accordingly. You may also consult a cookbook on high
altitude cooking for specific recommendations.

Cooking Tips
Food Placement
NOTE:
The rack positions mentioned below are counting
from the bottom up.
• For best results when baking on two racks, use rack
positions #2 and #4 or #1 and #3 with the oven set
to Pure Convection or convection bake mode. For best
results when baking on three racks, use rack positions
#1, #3 and #5 with the oven set to Pure Convection
mode.
• Turn pans on the racks so that the long sides run left
to right, as you face them.
• When you are cooking a food item that is very heavy,
use the Dacor GlideRack oven rack. You can pull it out
further than a conventional rack, making it easier to
check the food, stir or add ingredients.
• Heavier roasting pans and dishes will cook better on
rack position #1.
• When using the optional baking stone, use rack posi-
tion #1 for best results. If you put a baking stone on
the GlideRack oven rack, instead of one of the stan-
dard oven racks, you can pull the stone out of the
oven further, making pizza easier to remove.
The Best Use of Bake Ware
• You should bake cakes, quick breads, muffins and
cookies in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden
crusts. Avoid old, darkened, warped, dented, stainless
steel and tin-coated pans. They heat unevenly and will
not give good baking results.
• Use medium gauge aluminum sheets with low sides
when preparing cookies, biscuits and cream puffs.
Dacor cookie sheets, with their low profiles, will give
you the best results.
• Bake most frozen foods in their original foil contain-
ers, placed flat on a cookie sheet. Follow the pack-
age recommendations. When using glass bake ware,
reduce the recipe temperature by 25°F, except when
baking pies or yeast breads. Follow the standard
recipe baking time for pies and yeast breads.
