Yes, you can put water in the bottom pan of an electric roaster to help regulate the temperature and keep the food moist during cooking. However, make sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific roaster model.
When you heat water in a pan, the heat from the burner warms the bottom layer of water in contact with the pan. This layer then transfers its heat to the layers above it through convection, where warmer, less dense water rises and cooler, denser water sinks. As a result, the surface of the water heats up quickly due to this continuous movement and mixing of water layers. Additionally, the surface may also absorb heat from the air and the pan, further contributing to the quick warming.
Water in a preheated pan may not evaporate immediately because the water needs to reach its boiling point before it evaporates. Once the pan reaches a high enough temperature to boil the water, the water will start to evaporate into steam.
Boiling water will produce steam (water vapour). Eventually, if boiled long enough, all the water will have evaporated, with the risk of the bottom of the pan or kettle melting.
The time it takes for a bundt pan full of water to freeze depends on various factors such as the temperature of the freezer, the volume of water, and the material of the bundt pan. On average, it can take several hours to overnight for a bundt pan full of water to freeze completely.
The water from the defrost cycle typically drips into a drain pan located at the bottom of the refrigerator or freezer. From there, it evaporates due to the heat produced by the compressor. Some refrigerators also have a drain tube to direct the water to a tray on the exterior of the appliance where it will evaporate.
no you can't
No. Check the instruction guide.
Broth is not necessary. A bit of water in the bottom the pan under the roasting rack will do the same thing. It prevents the turkey fat from burning to the bottom of your roaster, and it will make an excellent broth on it's own. No need to have an added expense. If you are not making giblet gravy, you can make your gravy with the "pan drippings" in the roaster. It's a better flavor, especially if you take the time to deglaze the pan..all that wonderful turkey bit in the bottom makes better gravy.
When choosing an electric roaster pan, look for features like adjustable temperature control, a removable roasting rack, a large capacity, easy-to-clean surfaces, and a keep-warm setting.
Duck is a very fatty meat. The best way to cook it is in a roaster pan fitted with an elevated insert so that as the fat liquefies and drips to the bottom of the roaster; the remainder of the bird remains clear of the fat in the bottom of the pan.
No! Never add water between the two pans. I have seen numerous people do this and then badly scald their hand when trying to move the roaster. The boiling hot water splashes out the sides. Very dangerous!
You can't boil eggs in an electric fry pan. An electric fry pan needs to be plugged in and shouldn't be near water.
Is the stove level ? Is the pan wellworn with a rounded bottom rather than a flat bottom ?
To cook a turkey in a roaster pan with a lid, preheat the oven to the recommended temperature. Place the turkey in the roaster pan, cover with the lid, and cook according to the recipe instructions. Make sure to check the internal temperature of the turkey to ensure it is fully cooked before serving.

To effectively clean a burnt copper bottom pan, mix equal parts of vinegar and water in the pan and bring it to a boil. Let it cool, then scrub the burnt areas with a mixture of baking soda and water. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry the pan completely.
