To bake pie or cake in an oven, it is necessary to follow the recipe and to control time and temperature. But having faced capriciousness of gas ovens many hostesses lose interest in pastries after several annoying failures.
Instruction
1. Actually, to bake in a gas oven beautiful pies quite really. The hostesses who got used to electric ovens complain that pastries on gas burn from below and aren't baked thoroughly from above. The reason of it is in principle works of a gas oven: heat source in it is located only from below, unlike an electric oven in which heating elements are established on perimeter. But knowing several cunnings, you will be able to bake great pies even in the gas furnace.
2. Don't use a thick-walled baking tray which was applied to a plate. It is intended not for pastries, and for collecting fat from the meat which is cooked on a lattice. Trying to bake on it pie you will block the streams of warm air circulating on an oven, and pastries will burn from below and will remain crude from above.
3. Well warm up an oven before placing there a form with the test. It is recommended to include gas on the maximum fire for 10-15 minutes, then to reduce a flame to average or weak (depending on the recipe) and to put pie.
4. It is possible to try to put the container with water which compensates excess of temperature in the lower part on an oven bottom. For old plates the skilled hostesses advise to put couple of fire-resistant bricks in an oven. As it is ridiculous, bricks do distribution of heat in an oven to more uniform. If to follow a brick the reluctance, it is possible to fill instead the baking tray described above for collecting fat with coarse salt and to put down.
5. An important role is played by arrangement of a form with pie. Unfortunately, there is no exact recipe here, in each case it is necessary to experiment and try to bake not in a middle part of an oven, and, for example, in top. Invariable is only a rule that the form with pastries has to be located so that air circulation was provided.
6. If you tried everything, but pastries don't work well, it makes sense to invite the serviceman of gas stoves. Sometimes the unevenness of cooking firing is caused by the wrong installation of a plate or internal defects.
7. Use a silicone rug for pastries, he won't solve all problems with a gas oven, but life will facilitate, having protected your pastries from burning. For receiving a crust try to finish pie until ready on small fire, and then for 5 minutes to increase temperature then to switch off gas.
