OvenCookingTips
Mostrecipesfor bakinghave been
developed using high-fatproductssuch
as butteror margarine(80%tat by
weight the federal requirement for
products labeled "margarine"). You
will get poor results if cakes, pies,
pastries, cookies or candies are made
with low-fat spreads. Low-fat spreads
contain less fat and more water, The
high moisture content of these
spreads affects the texture and flavor
of favorite baked recipes. The lower
the fat content of a spread product,
the more noticeable these differences
become. To ensure best results, use
margarine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as
much as possible. Itbaking w_thmore
than one pan, place the pans so each
has at least t to 1W of air space
around it. Stagger pans on the rack
so one is not directly above the other
