Todays Conservastore Energy Saving Tip is courtesy of the Jerri Farris book 10-Minute Energy-Saving Secrets:
Cooking for the Holidays:
-Leave the oven door closed during cooking but open it after cooking and the oven is turned off to increase room warmth
-Use your toaster oven whenever possible–much more economical than a large oven
-Don’t overfill the oven
-Shine your burner reflector bowls to direct more heat to the pot or pan
-Replace warped pots and pans–flat surface area is preferred
-Limit oven preheat times
-Keep gas burners clean–the flames should be blue
Happy Holidays, cook safe and still save energy
