Broiling tips
• Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling.
They are designed to drain excess liquid
and grease away from the cooking surface
to help prevent spatter, smoke, or fire.
• Do not cover the broiler grid with foil.
Energy saving tips
Although the energy used for cooking is
usually a very small percentage of the total
energy used in the home, cooking energy
can be used efficiently. Here are some tips
to help you save energy when using your
cooking product:
• Preheat only when recommended and for
the shortest time possible.
• “Oven peeking” may cause heat loss,
longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory
baking results. Rely on your timer to keep
track of the cooking time.
• Bake cakes, pies, or cookies when oven is
warm. Best time to bake is right after a
meal has been cooked in oven.
• Plan your meals for the most efficient use
of the oven. When using the oven to cook
one food, try to cook the rest of the meal in
it also.
• Do not preheat when broiling, roasting, or
cooking items such as casseroles.
• After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake on the pan if you leave
it in the heated oven.
