Minimum Internal Cooking Temperatures
The minimum internal temperatures for foods to be
considered safe to eat, as determined by the
U. S
Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection
Service
, are as follows:
Probe Care and Use
To avoid damaging your probe, do not pull on the
cable when trying to remove it from a dish.
Do not use tongs or other instruments to pry on the
probe when removing it or to ‘hammer’ the probe into
a food dish.
Do not wash probe in the dishwasher; use warm,
soapy water instead to clean it.
To prevent possible burns, wait until the oven has
cooled before trying to remove the probe from the
outlet.
Do not store probe inside the oven.
Oven Functions
Tips for Bake
Preheating the Oven
Most cooking times in recipes are designed for a preheated
oven and require that the oven already be at a certain
temperature before cooking starts. Refer to your recipe for
preheating recommendations
.
Preheating time depends on
the temperature setting and the number of racks in the
oven (refer also to “To Set the Ovens” on page 27).
Getting the Best Results
Minimize opening the door:
Use the built-in timer.
Use the interior oven light.
Use the bakeware recommended in the recipe.
Store the broiler pan(s) outside the oven. An extra pan
without food, affects the browning and cooking.
The type of pan used affects the browning:
For tender, golden brown crusts, use light
non-stick/anodized or shiny metal pans.
For brown crisp crusts, use dark non-stick/
anodized or dark, dull metal pans or glass
bakeware. These may require lowering the bake
temperature 25°F (14°C).
Bakeware Type
Metal bakeware (with or without a non-stick finish),
heat-proof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery, or other
utensils are suitable for the oven.
Suitable cookie sheets have a small lip on one side
only. Heavy sheets or those with more than one side
may affect the baking time.
The 36" and 48" (914mm and 1219mm) ovens will hold
a full-sized commercial baking sheet (18" x 26")
(457mm x 660mm).
