Bakeware, Using, Aluminum, Correctly

Page 12 highlights

Pan Placement • If possible, use only one rack during baking if the pan covers most of the rack, such as a large cookie sheet • Stagger pans in opposite directions when two racks and several pans are used. No pan should be directly above another. • Allow 11to 2 inches of air space around all sides of each pan for even air circulation. • When using a large roasting pan, cookie sheet or broiler pan, turn the pan so that the long side is parallel to the oven door for the best heat distribution and air flow. Bakeware Tips • Use the recommended pan size given in recipes to insure good results. Old or darkened pans are not desirable. • Tin coated, stainless steel, warped or dented pans do not heat evenly and will cause uneven baking. • Bake cakes, cookies, quick breads and muffins in shiny pans for a tender, golden crust • • Reduce oven temperature by 25°F when using glass pans, except when baking pies or yeast breads. • Cookies, biscuits and cream puffs bake best on medium weight aluminum sheets with no sides or very low sides. Using Aluminum Foil Correctly in the Oven If you wish to use foil to catch possible spillovers, cut a piece of foil slightly larger than the pan being used and turn up the edges to form a tray. Position the foil "tray" on the oven rack below the pan. NEVER COVER AN ENTIRE OVEN RACK OR OVEN BOTTOM WITH FOIL. FOIL CAN OBSTRUCT NORMAL HEAT FLOW, CAUSE COOKING FAILURES AND DAMAGE THE OVEN INTERIOR. 12

use
only
one
rack
during
baking
if
the
pan
covers
most
of
the
rack,
such
as
a
large
cookie
sheet
Stagger
pans
in
opposite
directions
when
two
racks
and
several
pans
are
used.
No
pan
should
be
directly
above
another.
Allow
11
to
2
inches
of
air
space
around
all
sides
of
each
pan
for
even
air
circulation.
When
using
a
large
roasting
pan,
cookie
sheet
or
broiler
pan,
turn
the
pan
so
that
the
long
side
is
parallel
to
the
oven
door
for
the
best
heat
distribution
and
air
flow.

Tips
Use
the
recommended
pan
size
given
in
recipes
to
insure
good
results.
Old
or
darkened
pans
are
not
desirable.
Tin
coated,
stainless
steel,
warped
or
dented
pans
do
not
heat
evenly
and
will
cause
uneven
baking.
Bake
cakes,
cookies,
quick
breads
and
muffins
in
shiny
pans
for
a
tender,
golden
crust
Reduce
oven
temperature
by
25°F
when
using
glass
pans,
ex-
cept
when
baking
pies
or
yeast
breads.
Cookies,
biscuits
and
cream
puffs
bake
best
on
medium
weight
aluminum
sheets
with
no
sides
or
very
low
sides.
Using
Aluminum
Foil
Correctly
in
the
Oven
If
you
wish
to
use
foil
to
catch
possible
spillovers,
cut
a
piece
of
foil
slightly
larger
than
the
pan
being
used
and
turn
up
the
edges
to
form
a
tray.
Position
the
foil
"tray"
on
the
oven
rack
below
the
pan.
NEVER
COVER
AN
ENTIRE
OVEN
RACK
OR
OVEN
BOTTOM
WITH
FOIL.
FOIL
CAN
OBSTRUCT
NORMAL
HEAT
FLOW,
CAUSE
COOKING
FAILURES
AND
DAMAGE
THE
OVEN
INTERIOR.
