Only preheat the oven if it specifies in the recipe or in
the table in the instruction manual that you should do
so.
Use non stick, black painted or enamelled tins. They
absorb the heat especially well.
If you have several cakes to bake it is best to bake
them one after the other. The oven is still warm. This
shortens the baking time for the second cake.
For long cooking times, it is possible to switch off the
oven 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time
and thus use the residual heat to finish off the
cooking.
The table applies to dishes placed in a cold oven.
Place the bake in microwaveable ovenware on the
wire rack.
Use large flat ovenware for bakes and gratins. Food
takes longer to cook in narrow, deep containers and
browns more on top.
Bakes and gratins should be left to cook in the oven
for a further 5 minutes after the oven has been
switched off.
