mrsbrownI fired the oven for only an hour tonight, as an experiment. 7.15-8.30pm
First I cooked bread. The base was a bit too hot and I burnt the flour I used to stop the bread from sticking. The bread cooked in about 25-30 min. 9pm
then I put the pear pastry into the oven, as well as the oven thermometer. 9pm
After 5ish minutes, the thermometer said the oven was 350degrees F (sounds better than the equivalent Celcius measure) 9.05
20 min later the pastry was mostly cooked and the oven was 300degrees. 9.25
I've taken the pastry out now and it's cooked but not completely brown. 9.25 (Yum!)
Now I'll see how the jam tarts go. 9.35pm
9.55pm Burnt myself on the jam
10.05 I declare them cooked. The oven was 220degrees F. They're not brown, but the pastry's cooked.
