BAKING IN THE OVEN – PRACTICAL HINTS
Roasting meat
cook meat weighing over 1 kg in the oven, but smaller pieces should be cooked
on the gas burners.
use heatproof ovenware for roasting, with handles that are also resistant to
high temperatures;
when roasting on the drying rack or the grate we recommend that you place
a baking tray with a small amount of water on the lowest level of the oven;
it is advisable to turn the meat over at least once during the roasting time and
during roasting you should also baste the meat with its juices or with hot salty
water – do not pour cold water over the meat.
