Plastic/paper covered wire ties should not be used. They can catch fire and cause the bag to melt.

Why do you add flour to oven bags?

Always shake one tablespoon of flour in an oven bag before cooking. This flour should remain

in the

bag during cooking to blend the fat and juices and to protect against bursting. More than one

tablespoon of flour may be added to the bag for recipes with thickened sauces or gravy.

What can I substitute for flour in Reynolds® Oven Bags?

You can u

se cornstarch or any other kind of flour such as rice flour or potato flour. Matzo meal may

also be used. You should always include flour or a flour substitute because it blends the fat and

juices in the oven bag to prevent the oven bag from bursting.

Why

does the baking pan have to be at least 2 inches deep?

During cooking, meat juices and melted fat may collect in the corners of the oven bag. If the bag

hangs over the sides of the pan, these meat juices and melted fat may touch the heating element,

broi

ling element, oven walls, oven rack or floor of the oven. This may cause the bag to melt and to

create a grease fire in the oven.

Can a Reynolds® Oven Bag be used in a convection oven?

Yes, if it is a full

When using a convection oven, reduce the recommended oven temperature by 25 degrees and

roast for the same amount of time. Always preh

eat the oven before using an oven bag and never

exceed 400 degrees.

Can I use oven bags in an electric roaster oven such as a Nesco,

or any type of grill.
