HINTS AND TIPS
l
Remember that the top of the oven is hotter than
the bottom. The approximate difference in
temperature between the top and the bottom is
30°C.
l
If a higher shelf position is used than is
recommended in the chart on page 34 it may be
necessary to lower the cooking temperature by
approximately 10°C.
l
Be prepared to interchange dishes between the
higher and lower shelf position during cooking,
where necessary.
l
It is best to cover dishes, where practical, for
part of the cooking time to prevent over
browning. Covering the food will also reduce fat
splashing onto the oven interior and help to keep
the oven clean. Uncover food for the last 15-30
minutes of cooking time to allow the food to
brown.
l
Ensure that food is placed centrally on the
shelves and that there is sufficient room around
the dishes to allow for maximum air circulation.
l
The use of enamelware or dark, heavy or
non-stick utensils will help to increase base
browning for dishes such as Yorkshire Pudding,
Plate Pies etc.
l
For faster preheating use the Fan Oven function
to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon
goes out, then switch to the Zoned Oven
following the times, temperatures and shelf
positions recommended.
