¾ Food containing a mixture of fat and water (for example, stock) should stand for 30 to
60 seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is to allow the mixture to

cloth after each use. If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may overheat,
smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.
