Baked Potatoes
10 pounds (4.5 kg) baking potatoes
Wash and scrub the potatoes. Pierce all the potatoes, several times. Stack in the
roaster oven so that they are not touching the sides of the insert pan. Bake at
400ºF (200ºC) for 1 hour, or until done. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork.
The Perfect Cheesecake
You need a springform pan for this, but cheesecakes are easy to make. The
roaster oven cooks the cheesecake with gentle heat by surrounding it with water
like the professionals do.
Butter
1 ⁄
2
cup (125 ml) graham cracker crumbs
6 (8-ounce [225 g]) packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 1 ⁄
2

5 eggs
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla
1 tablespoon (15 ml) lemon juice
Generously butter bottom and sides of 9
1 ⁄
2
inch (24 cm) springform pan. Sprinkle
crumbs evenly over bottom of pan. In a large mixing bowl beat cream cheese until
smooth. Add sugar and continue to beat until smooth. Add eggs beating well after
each addition. Stir in vanilla and lemon juice. Pour into prepared springform pan.
Cover springform pan with aluminum foil. (This prevents condensation in roaster
from dripping onto cake.) Pour 3 quarts (3 L) hot water into insert pan. Place spring-
form pan on rack and place in roaster. Cover and bake at 325ºF (160ºC) for 1 1 ⁄
2
hours. Carefully remove and let cool, then refrigerate thoroughly before serving.

for 30 minutes, stirring and scraping sides of pan with a rubber spatula every 10
minutes to ensure even cooking. Makes 15 servings.
