Cooking Instructions 31 BROILING Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor. Preheating Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. (Remove the broiler pan before preheating. Foods will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the control to BROIL. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done. To Broil Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve. Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning or removing food. Broiling Tips The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. Broiling Times Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times, or move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item closely.

Cooking Instructions
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the

Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. (Remove the broiler pan before preheating.
Foods will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the control to BROIL. Wait for the
element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling
meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve.
Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning or removing food.

The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat
of the broiler.
