A.
Chickenis the only footi
recommendedforclosed-door
broiling.This is becausechickenis
relativelythickerthnnother foods
youbroil. Closingthe door holds
more heat in the ovenwhichallows
chickento cook evenlythroughout.
Q. when broiling, is it necessary
to always use a rack in the pan?
A..Yes.Using the rack suspends
the meat overthe pan. Asthe meat
cooks, thejuices fallinto the pan,
thus keepingmeatdrier. Juices
are protectedbythe rack and stay
cooler, thuspreventingexcessive
spatter and smoking.
Q. shouldI saltthemeatbefore
broiling?
A..No. Salt drawsout thejuices
and allowsthem to evaporate.
Alwayssalt after cooking. Turn
meat with tongs;piercing meat
with a fork also allowsjuices to
escape. When broiling poultry
or fish, brush each side often
with butter.

A.
In some areas, the power
(voltage)to the rangemaybe low.
In these cases, preheat the broil
unit for 10minutesbefore placing
broiler pan with food in oven.
Check to see if you are using the
recommended shelf position. Broil
for longestperiod o~time indicated
in the Broiling Guide. Turn food
only once dt~ringbroiling.
