COOKING RESULTS NOT
SATISFACTORY
GRILL
Uneven cooking front to back Ensure that the grill pan is positioned centrally
below the grill element.
Fat splattering Ensure that the grill pan is not lined with foil.
Ensure that the grill setting is not too high.
BAKING GENERAL
Uneven rising of cakes Ensure that the oven shelves are level.
Sinking of cakes The following may cause cakes to sink:
1. Pre-heating of fan ovens – not always necessary.
2. Cooking at too high a temperature – reduce
standard temperatures by 25 ˚ C for fan ovens.
3. Using normal creaming method with a soft margarine.
If using soft margarine, use an all in one method
instead of the traditional creaming of the margarine
and sugar. Remember when using a food mixer or
processor not to over-cream soft margarine.
Over/undercooking Refer to the cooking times and temperatures given in
the Oven Temperature Charts provided, however, it may
be necessary to increase or decrease
temperatures by 10˚C to suit personal taste.
Do not use utensils greater than 56mm (2 l ⁄
4
'') in height
for roasting.
