Oven Use; Baking Tips - JENN-AIR PRD3030 Guía Para El Uso Y El Cuidado

OVEN USE

OVEN COOKING ELEMENTS
Your new professional range is equipped with bake and broil cooking elements. On the PRD3630
Model, the oven bakes at 5,000 Watts. On the PRD3030 model, the oven bakes at 3,700 watts. Both
ovens broil at 4,000 Watts.
OVEN
Your new oven can be used in three cooking modes; convection bake, regular bake, and regular broil.
To help you decide which way to cook your food read this information first. Remember this is a new
oven and the thermostat has been checked for accuracy. Your old oven may have had a thermostat
that over the years got a little hot or a little cold. Check your recipes for the correct time and
temperature. Use caution when using your old oven's time or temperature. You may have been
compensating for your old oven being out of calibration.

BAKING TIPS

Use a reliable recipe and accurately measure fresh ingredients. Carefully follow directions for oven
temperature and cooking time. Preheat oven if recommended.
Use the correct rack position. Baking results may be affected if the wrong rack position is used.
Top browning may be darker if food is located toward the top of the oven.
Bottom browning may be darker if food is located toward the bottom of the oven.
Bakeware material plays an important part in baking results. Always use the type and size of pan
called for in the recipe. Cooking times or cooking results may be affected if the wrong size is use.
Shiny metal pan reflects heat away from the food, produces lighter browning and a softer crust.
Use shiny pans for baking cakes or cookies.
Dark metal pan or a pan with an anodized (dull) bottom absorbs heat, produces darker
browning and a crisper crust. Use this type of pan for pies, pie crusts or bread.
For optimum baking results, bake cookies and biscuits on a flat cookie sheet with one lip. If the
pan has sides, such as a jelly roll pan, browning may not be even.
If using oven-proof glassware, or dark pans such as Baker's Secret reduce the oven temperature
by 25 º F except when baking pies or bread. Use the same baking time as called for in the recipe.
If using insulate bakeware, expect cooking times to increase slightly. It is not necessary to adjust
the oven temperature.
Check the cooking progress at the minimum time recommended in the recipe. If necessary, continue
checking at intervals until the food is done. If the oven door is opened too frequently, heat will escape
from the oven; this can affect baking results and wastes energy.
If you add additional ingredients or alter the recipe, expect cooking times to increase or decrease
slightly.
