Broiler p28

To use  an electric broiler effectively,  you  thus
must find its sweet  zone.  A  simple approach is  to
use  this  rule of thumb:  the  center  of the  sweet
z one, where  the  heat is  most even,  is  about  S  mm  I
0.2  in below  the  heating element  plus just  a  bit less
than half ( 44%)  of the  distance  between  the
heating rods.


- sweet spot for an electric broiler = 5mm + 1/2 the distance between the rods
 therefore, usually quite close...about 1-2 inches away only

- too close, burns too fast...
- too far, shadows from rods cause uneven cooking

*tip is to use vertical reflectors near the edges
