_duminum cookware conducts heat tipster
than other metals. Cast-iron and coated
cast-ii'on cookware aI'e slow to absoi'b
heat, but generally cook evenly at low to
medium heat settings. Steel pans may
cook unevenly if not combined with
other metals.
For best cooking results, pans should be
fiat on the bottom. Match the size of the
saucel)an to the size of the stuli_ce unit.
The pan should not extend over the
edge ot the stu_hce unit more than 1".
Use only flat-bottomed woks.
Wok Cooking
Werecommendthat youuseonlya flat-bottomed

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary20-40 degrees.

Thetypeof margarine will affect bakingperformance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result ff cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. Thelower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards reqtfire products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fi_t by _vight. i,o_tht spreads,
on tile other hand, contain less tilt and more water. Tile high inoisture content of these spreads aflbcts tile
texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with wmr old thvorite recipes, use margarine, butter or
stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
