THE TYPE OF MARGARINE WILL AFFECT BAKING PERFORMANCE
•
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If
you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
•
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies, or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
•
Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and fl avor
of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at
least 70% vegetable oil.
USING THE OVEN FOR BAKING
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
HOW TO SET YOUR OVEN FOR BAKING
1. Close the oven door. Then turn the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired temperature.
2. Check to see if the food is done at the minimum time on the recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Turn the OVEN TEMP
knob to OFF and remove the food.
OVEN SHELVES
Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the desired locations while the
oven is cool. The correct shelf position depends on the kind of food
and the browning desired.
As a general rule, place most foods in the middle of the oven, on
either the shelf position B or C. See the chart for suggested shelf
positions.
PREHEATING
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature - selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.
Preheat the oven for 10 minutes if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specifi ed temperature
vefore putting the food in the oven.
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles and roasts,
preheating is not necessary.
