Preheating is necessary forgood results when baking cakes, cookies,pastry and breads.For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,preheat 10 minutes.Baking results will be better if baking pansare centered in the oven as much aspossible. Pans should not touch each otheror the walls of the oven. If you need to usetwo shelves, stagger the pans so one is notdirectly above the other, and leaveapproximately 11⁄2″ between pans, fromthe front, back and sides of the wall.Aluminum FoilNever cover the oven bottom withaluminum foil.You can use aluminum foil to line thebroiler pan and broiler grid. However,you must mold the foil tightly to the gridand cut slits in it just like the grid.Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover.Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminumfoil. This will disturb the heat circulationand result in poor baking.A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catcha spillover by placing it on a lower shelfseveral inches below the food.Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.Oven MoistureAs your oven heats up, the temperaturechange of the air in the oven may causewater droplets to form on the door glass.These droplets are harmless and willevaporate as the oven continues to heat up.The oven has a special low shelf (R)position just above the oven bottom.Use it when extra cooking space isneeded, for example, when roastinga large turkey. The shelf is notdesigned to slide out at this position.
