| To revive a
stale loaf of bread, cut off and discard the end slice, hold the loaf
cut side down for a few moments under a running cold tap, and place
the loaf in the roasting oven for four minutes |
|
|
When boiling
your kettle, place the spout facing the hotplate lid. The steam
will help keep this area clean and an occasional wipe will be all that
is needed to keep it pristine. |
| To loosen
tight screw top preserve jars, simply place inverted on the simmering
plate for 30 seconds. The metal lid will expand and may then be
easily twisted off using a cloth. |
|
|
To clean wax
from candlesticks, place on a sheet of cardboard in a tin on the floor
of the simmering oven. The gentle warmth will melt the wax and
it will soak into the cardboard. Buff to a shine with a soft dry
cloth. |
| Place a
lemon in the roasting oven for two minutes before squeezing to extract
the most juice. |

Troubleshooting Tips for your Aga
If you are the proud
owner of an Aga or Rayburn I have come across a "gadget" which you may find
of interest. It immediately
doubles your drying area, keeping clothes well away from the cooker front.
This eliminates the danger of scorching delicate hand washed items of
clothing, and also leaves the air inlets to the burner chamber clear.
Should you feel that you
need even more drying area, a second
cooker rail can be clipped on to the first.
The rails ingeniously fold upward and forward to lie against the cooker
front, leaving full access to hobs and ovens .
Suitable for most cookers, even the
latest gas or electric hob types as long as the existing rail is from
1"tube. 7/8" diameter tube is under development for some early
Rayburn and other stoves.
