Why do you need to preheat the oven before baking?

Check the recipe before cooking. Sometimes preheating is, and sometimes is not, necessary.

If you need to cook something in the oven for a specific amount of time at a specific temperature, then it must be cooked at that temperature the WHOLE time.

If it takes 10 minutes to preheat it to 300 degrees, and you put the food in WITHOUT preheating, you undercook it.

And if you out the food in WHILE preheating, you end up overcooking it.

2 peaches

This would have to be very small peaches.

Measuring a fresh peach in a recipe or diet replacement, it would be 1 AVERAGE peach to meaure 1 cup of peaches. Using purchased/processed peaches which are diced, it would still be 1 peach per 1 cup.

How do you cook a 6 pound ham?

I place in 2" deep pan lined with foil. I pour a can of coca cola over it and bake for 1 hour in a 325 degree oven. I baste it every 15 minutes but if you cover it with foil

also, twice should be sufficient. This gives the ham a gingery flavor and enhances the

flavor overall. I have also covered it with onion rings and honey,but while that tastes

wonderful,it ruins it for sandwich making.

How long should you bake 40 potatoes?

The quantity of potatoes does not alter the cooking time. But the size of potato or potato pieces affects the time it takes for them to boil. 1, 10 or 100 potatoes of similar size will require the same cooking time when boiled. But larger potatoes take longer to boil than small potatoes. Cut the potatoes into pieces of approximately the same size, and they will all be done at about the same time.

How do you convert 200 grams to liters or pints?

You need to know the density of what you are talking about. Then, simply divide the mass (i.e. 200 grams) by that density in grams per litre or grams per pint. Other measurements like ounces or pounds per litre or per pint can be converted to gL-1 or g/p.

What temperature and how long do you cook a 19 lb turkey?

Defrosting: From the freezer to the fridge: 1 day in the fridge per 5 pounds.

19 lbs would be about 4 days in the fridge.

Cooking: 325 degrees for about 4 hours.

The rule is about 15 minutes per pound.

It's better to get a recipe and follow their directions, since some recipes say 350 to 400 degrees and some say longer than 4 hours (and depends on if it's stuffed or not).

This just gives you an estimation so that some people aren't trying to defrost a turkey the night before Thanksgiving and think they can bake it in an hour.
