Broiling
■ Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is
designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
■ For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foii. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning,
■ Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to prevent curling.
■ Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■ After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Before broiling,
position rack according to Broiling chart. It is not necessary to
preheat the oven before putting food in unless recommended in
the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in
the center of the oven rack.
