Roasting
Do not lock the oven door with the latch during
roasting. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.
Roasting is cooking by dry heat.. Tender meat or poultry
can be roasted uncovered in your oven.. Roasting
temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep
spattering to a minimum.
The oven has a special low
shelf position (R) just above
the oven bottom. Use it when
extra cooking space is
needed, for exampte, when
roasting a large turkey. The
shelf is not designed to slide
out at this position,.
Roasting is really a baking
procedure used for meats,.
Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking.
(You may hear a slight clicking sound indicating
the oven is working properly.)
Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing after
being removed from the oven. Recommended standing
time for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows the roasts
to firm up and makes them easier to carve,. The internal
temperature will rise about 5° to 10°F (3° to 6°C)_ If you
wish to compensate for the temperature rise, remove the
roast from the oven when its internal temperature is 5° to
10°F (3° to 6°C) less than the temperature shown in the
Roasting Guide..
Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven
and therefore should be removed when the desired
internal temperature has been reached,
1, Position oven shelf at
position B for small size
roast (3 to 5 ibs.[t,3 to
2.3 kg]) and at position R
for larger roasts,
2. Check the weight of the
meat,. Place the meat
fat-side-up or the poultry breast-side-up on roasting
grid in a shallow pan,. The melting fat will baste the
meat.. Select a pan as close to the size of the meat
as possible. (The broiler pan with grid is a good pan
for this..)
3. Turn the Oven Set knob to the desired temperature°
See the Roasting Guide for temperatures and
approximate cooking times.
4, When roasting is finished, turn the Oven Set knob to
OFF and then remove the food from the oven.
Dual Shelf Cooking
This allows more than one food to be cooked at the same
time,, For example: While roasting a 20-tb,. (t0 kg) turkey
on shelf position R, a second shelf (if so equipped) may
be added on position D so that an additional food such as
scalloped potatoes can be cooked at the same time,,
Foods cooked with the turkey should be added toward
the end of the time allowed for the turkey,, For example,
potatoes which cook for t hour should be added to the
oven 1 hour before the end of cooking time for the turkey.
Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil
to line the broiler pan_ This
makes clean up easier
when using the pan for
marinating, cooking with
fruits, cooking heavily
cured meats or basting
food during cooking. Press
the foil tightly around the
inside of the pan.

Frozen Roasts
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc, can be started
without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per pound
(450 grams) additional time (15 minutes per pound
for roasts under 5 pounds [2°3 kg], more time for
larger roasts).
Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting. Unthawed
poultry often does not cook evenly° Some commercial frozen
poultry can be cooked successfully without thawing,. Follow
the directions given on the package label.
