GUIDELINES
USING ALUMINUM FOIL
NOTE: Do not line the oven bottom with foil or
other liners. It could
affect the oven surface
as well as the quality of
your baking.
•
Do not cover the
entire rack with alumi-
num foil. It will reduce
air circulation and give
you poor cooking
results.
•
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from pies or
casseroles by placing foil on the oven rack below.
Foil should be turned up at edges and be at least 1
inch larger than dish.
•
Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or poultry
to slow down surface browning for long term roast-
ing. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.
•
Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust edges if
browning too quickly.
