ROASTINGRoasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat orpoultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.Roasting temperatures, which should be low andsteady, keep spattering to a minimum.Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats.Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking orTimed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound,indicating the oven is working properly.) TimedBaking will turn the oven on and off automatically.Most meats continue to cook slightly after beingremoved from the oven. The internal temperaturewill rise about 5° to 10°F. during the recommendedstanding time of 10 to 20 minutes. This allowsroasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve.To compensate for this rise in temperature, you maywant to remove the roast sooner (at 5° to 10°F. lessthan the temperature in the Roasting Guide).Remember that food will continue to cook in the hotoven and therefore should be removed when thedesired internal temperature has been reached.Use of Aluminum FoilYou can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan.This makes clean-up easier when using the pan formarinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavilycured meats or basting food during cooking. Pressthe foil tightly around the inside of the pan.How to Set Your Oven for Roasting1. Place the shelf in A or B position. No preheatingis necessary.2. Check the weight of themeat.
