SECTION 3 - COOKING HINTS
3.1 Solid Top
Getting the best out of this type of heat source is
obviously largely a matter of experience, coupled with
the needs of the particular task in hand.
For certain applications, such as heating a pot
quickly, it will be found expedient to remove the
centre ring and place the pot directly over the burner.
If on the other hand, it is necessary to heat the entire
surface, the ring must be in place. In the interests of
economy it is recommended that the solid-top should
not be left unattended with the gas on FULL setting.
If it is necessary to keep the top hot for any length of
time, control should be turned down to LOW setting.
Do not at any time leave the gas on whilst centre ring
is removed - such practice simply wastes gas.
The hottest area of the plate is in the centre and
toward the rear, the front and side are cooler.
3.2 Using The Oven
The cooking chart provides a selection of conditions
for cooling selected types of food, and to ensure
satisfactory performance the following instructions
should be observed.
Grid Shelves
Space these at least two runners apart. In the cooking
chart, the runners are numbered downwards. i.e. No.
1 is at the top.
Tray Size
A cake tray up to 400mm x 490mm (15
3
/
4
" x 19
1
/

")
can be used on each shelf. Alternatively, gastronorm
1/1 trays can be used. A single baking tin (e.g. School
meals type) 405mm x 265mm (16" x 10
1
/
2
") can be
accommodated on each shelf.
Pre-Heat Time
Allow at least 40 minutes from lighting a cold oven
before loading the oven. Put the food in quickly and
close the doors without delay.
Thermostat
The desired oven temperature will be maintained
automatically at the temperature (
o
C) selected.
These are approximate centre oven temperatures
and cooking conditions for each position.
