Food and cooking tips

Oven Tips : Close the oven door gently - slamming forces out the hot air.


Kitchen Tip : On electric stovetops, use flat-bottomed pans that make full contact with the element. A warped or rounded pan may be a conversation piece, but will waste most of the heat.


Oven Tips : If you don't have one, consider buying a self-cleaning oven. They use less energy for normal cooking because of higher insulation levels. They also save on your rubber glove and cleanser purchases! However, if you use the self-cleaning feature more than once a month, you'll end up using more energy than you saved. When you clean the oven, do it right after cooking to take advantage of residual heat.

Where it came from before that I do not know. Yield: About 6 servings. * These are much better than any store bought granola. I eat it as desert or carry it instead of gorp when backpacking. It is very good eaten straight, with no milk. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 15 minutes preparation, 20 minutes cooking : Precision: no need to measure. : Pat Caudill : Tektronix, Inc., Portland, Oregon, USA : patc@tekcrl.tek.com tektronix!tekcrl.tek.com!patc : Copyright (C) 1986 USENET Community Trust
