Using the oven. 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. Recipefailure can result if cakes,pies, pastries, cookiesor candies are made with low fat spreads. Thelower 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 flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil. Preheating and Pan Placement Preheatthe oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. On some models, the display will show "PRE" while preheating. When the oven reachesthe selectedtemperature, the oven control will beep and the display will show the oven temperature. For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pansshould not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two racks, stagger the puns so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 1½ from the front of the pan to the front of the rack. Aluminum Foil Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms. The foil will trap heat below and upset the performance of the oven. Foil can melt and permanently damage the oven bottom. Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is not covered by the product warranty Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food .Do not use more foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2" from oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation. If your range is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks may be broiled by preheating the broiler and positioning the oven rack one position higher.
