cause uneven browning. Check with the
recommendations for oven temperatures given in the
cooking charts, but be prepared to adjust the temperature,
if necessary. Remember to reduce temperatures by about
20-25°C for your own conventional recipes.
When roasting do use the trivet in the meat tin. Fat and
meat juices will drain into the meat tin below and can be
used to make gravy. The trivet also prevents splashes of
fat from soiling the oven interior.
The meat tin should not be placed on a heated hotplate
as this may cause the enamel to crack.
