Baking In A Silver Spring-foam Pan?!
Baking In A Silver Spring-foam Pan?
I have a shiny or silver springfoam pan. In all my cheesecake recipes, the cooking temp is 350F. I thought that I'd seem a tip about lowering the cooking temp by 25F for silver pans. Does that sould about right.?
Answers:
Yes it's the dark or nonstick springFORM pans that need lower temps.
Ans this is not a critical piece of kitchen equipment like a knife or a saute pan that you need the very top quality.
What in the heck is Smart and final?
I think going to Smart and Final and buying professional cookware so you don't have to beat your brains out about changing the temperature sounds about right. Be a doll and put the shiny stuff back up on the shelf with the other "white elephant" appliances.
It's the darker pans (not the silver/shiny pans) as well as glass pans that need a lower temperature. Your pan should do fine for cheesecake at 350 F. That's what I have...but some darker non-stick pans (like 8" rounds) do need lower temps.
I have only heard of lowering the oven temp for glass pans. I have shiny spring form pans I use to bake cheese cake and I always bake them at 350' F. I think you have to bake at a lower temp in glass because they don't hold up well in high heat. Hope this helped and God be with you.
