How to get the best results from your oven
Everybody is on an energy saving drive. Even the government are running radio adverts about how to make our homes more energy efficient. As a domestic appliance supplier in Fleet this is relevant and to us. We think if it has a plug on the end then we need to share helpful knowledge with you our customers. Now the clever ones amongst you will say: Ah, an oven doesn’t have a plug; it’s hard wired. And of course, you’re right, but let’s not spoil a useful blog because detail gets in the way!
So, here are our tips for efficient use of your oven
- Avoid opening the oven door, especially when baking. Wait until your timer sounds and judge by appearance and smell
- Keep your oven clean to avoid directing heat to burnt on food
- Use the oven’s timer (if applicable) to prevent burning or undercooking
- Choose cookware to suit the food. Glass and ceramic hold heat most effectively, while metal achieves all-over browning
- Add a crispy or browned finish by cooking longer than stated. Or use a blast of heat – around 25 degrees higher should do the trick
- Electric ovens can be quite dry, preventing bread and cakes from rising effectively. Adding a pan of hot water to the bottom of the oven will add steam to help them along.
We have a brilliant selection of built in electric ovens from leading manufacturers like Hisense, NEFF, Zanussi, Bosch and AEG.
We can advise on the right appliance for you and with our knowledgeable, local and friendly service you can’t go wrong. Pop in and see us on Kings Road in Fleet or call us on 01252 815476
