we'll discuss now the conferring of ovens now ovens if they have a self-clean cycle a very simple takashi one just needs to clean it basically to make sure there's no obvious comments inside then turn on the oven to the self-cleaning cycle which generates heat in excess of 900 degrees which is a late bloomer which is the full fashioning and then once completed the oven is now pay something the ovens that don't have a self-cleaning so what we're gonna do is we're gonna go inside we're gonna clean it out very meticulously entire surface we're going to use something like needs to offer an oven cleaner to make sure that it's completely clean after that's done we're gonna leave it idle for 24 hours we're going to turn it on to the highest possible temperature like the royal temperature that the ovens have and we're going to run it for a number of hours maybe two three hours and that will generate heat now some opinions are lenient and allow the oven to be used simply after that procedure is completed others do require in addition to that what we just mentioned taking a torch and going over carefully the entire surface one needs to be careful when one gets to the back to the area of the thermostat not to destroy the thermostat it's always a good idea to do this a few days before you don't it so that in the event that you do destroy or break your oven repairman can come and fix what the damage that we've done but some do require that or doing what we mentioned running it to the highest temperature for a number of hours and then afterwards putting an insert they do have oven inserts so that whatever food you bake or cook inside the oven will not be in the oven directly rather it will be on the in the insert also the grates themselves if we don't have a self clean cycle the grates themselves should not have a base of products directly on for example if you want to take a baked potato and make it on the grate once you put something down and not have it correctly under great because even those that would concede that is enough to do what we call even color which is a lesser degree of temperature heat that's only for the areas that don't come in direct contact with food but the racks themselves that do one should not use on pizza
