ture is reached and to place the food in the oven.

Baking tips:
• When using two racks for baking, space the pans as shown
in Figure 26 for more even baking results.
• Dark or dull pans and glass absorb more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or over browning of foods. To
prevent this it may be necessary to reduce the oven temper-
ature or cook time to prevent over browning of some foods.
Dark pans are recommended for pies. Shiny pans are
recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
• Do not open the oven door too often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven.
