USING YOUR OVEN
For best air circulation
Hot air must circulate around the pans in the
oven for even heat to reach all parts of the
oven. This results in better baking.
• Place the pans so that one is not directly
over the other.
• For best results, allow 1
1
⁄2 to 2 inches
(4-5 cm) of space around each pan and
between pans and oven walls.
• Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at
a time.
Using aluminum foil for baking
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers
from pies or casseroles:
• Place the foil on the oven rack below the
rack with the food. Turn up foil edges and
make sure foil is about 1 inch (3 cm)
larger all around than the dish holding
the food.
Use the following as a guide to determine
where to place the pans:
One pan
Place in the center of the oven rack.
Two pans
Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.
Three or four pans
Place in opposite corners on each oven
rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly
over another.
• Do not cover the entire rack with alumi-
num foil. It will reduce air circulation and
cause poor cooking results.
• Do not line oven bottom with foil or other
liners. It could affect the quality of your
baking.
