Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessaiy' for
good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastiy and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or
tone, preheat W minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans

are centered in the oven as much as
possible. Pans should not touch each

other or the walls of the oven. If you need
to use rtvo shelves, stagger the pans so one

is not diiectly above the other, and leave
approximately 114" between pans, from

the front, back and sides of the w’all.

Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. How’evei;
you must mold the firil tightly to the giid
and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a
spillover.

Never entirely cover a shelf with

aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat

circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of fi>il may' be used to

catch a spillover by jrlacing it on a low'er

shelf several inches below’ the food.
