Cooking times

Consult your cook book.

Please note:

Cover dishes

which are to be cooked

in their own juice and/or steam, e.g. po-
tatoes or vegetables, so that they do
not dry out. If there is no lid use alu-
minium foil or damp cooking parch-
ment.

Cook without a lid

when a crusty finish

or topping is required, eg for meat or au
gratin dishes.

Poaching

Fish or fruit can be poached in the oven
in a covered dish.

Bottling

Bottling should only be undertaken by
an experienced cook who has received
proper training in this method of pre-
serving fruit and vegetables, and un-
derstands the implications of the chem-
ical reactions involved.
