6. ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
Pre-heat the oven only where this is indicated in the recipe or in the cooking
table for the dish you want to make.
It is better to use dark baking moulds, preferably enamelled in black, as these
materials absorb heat particularly well.
If you wish to bake a batch of several cakes, you should do so one after the
other. As the oven is already hot, the baking times of second and subsequent
cakes are shorter.You can also prepare two cakes simultaneously by placing
rectangular moulds side by side.
If using the oven continuously for a long time, you can switch it off 5 or 10
minutes before the time indicated and take advantage of the residual heat to
finish preparing the food.
If your oven includes the “Gentle Grill” function, use it to prepare small
amounts of grilled food, placing the food in the central part of the tray or grille.
