A. Good Morning Terry Thank you for your question. The roaster can be used on both the Simmering Plate and the Boiling Plate. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good Afternoon Thank you for your query. The handles of the roaster are not designed to fit directly onto the runners of the AGA. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Thank you for your query. The dimensions of the cast aluminium roaster are the interior measurements. The height with the lid on is 13cm, and with the lid inverted it is 10.5cm. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear John This is the baby to consider: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cast-aluminium-rectangular-double-roaster.html It is primarily sold to my mind for covered roasting in a conventional oven, keeping the oven itself from getting too dirty from splashes. As roasting strictly speaking is defined “cooking of food using radiant dry heat” (Larousse Gastronomique), such use is not really roasting at all, but baking, but that is not your concern. The Aga Roasting Oven does fulfil the requirement as it uses radiant heat as the primary means of transferring heat to the food being cooked and it is a dry environment, as steam is not contained (as with the covered roaster), but taken away by means of the oven venting system. Where this utensil will hopefully score for you is used for roasting without its lid. Then it will continue to roast using radiant heat. The 6mm flat base can also be used on the Aga hotplates and makes excellent conduct when you want to finish the dish by making gravy or a sauce in the base, both when making the roux and when you whisk in the liquids. The lid is also a ridged griddle and works on the Aga Boiling Plate to grill steaks, chops, cutlets and meatier cuts of fish such as tuna, marlin and swordfish. It is also good with chicken breasts for a chicken Caesar salad and for cooking liver, plus of course for griddling any vegetables: I use it for aubergine slices when making mousakka. Its final use of course is as an excellent casserole: brown the meat in batches in the large base, placing each batch in turn when well browned in the upturned lid. Then continue with the alliums and so on and then return the resting ingredients to the base, add the remaining items and pour over the stock, wine or beer etc. Its base will come quickly to simmering point before you give a couple of minutes on the Simmering Plate. Cover and transfer to the Simmering Oven to cook “low and slow” for 2-4 hours, depending on the cut of meat. The only drawback is that this utensil has to be used front to back in the ovens; it is not designed to hang from the oven runners like the normal Aga roasting tins. Nevertheless, I think it is perfect for what you have described. I hope that helps. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Assuring you of our best attention at all times. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good Afternoon Mike Thank you for your query. The stainless steel lids on the cast aluminium saucepans are simmering oven safe. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Margaret Without doubt the best by far is one of the cast aluminium AGA pans, which are non-stick. The excellent heat conductive properties of aluminium make them super-efficient with their 6mm machine finished bases and the non-stick is of excellent quality: I don’t use a lot of non-stick utensils but this is one of the few “must haves” in my kitchen. I only use if for heating milk, making white sauce, scrambled eggs and occasionally porridge. Washing up for all of these is an absolute breeze using just a sponge and a little washing up liquid. The one I would recommend comes with a lid which forms a very good seal, important if you also want to use it to make overnight AGA porridge in the Simmering Oven with traditional oatmeal: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/cookware/saucepans/18cm-cast-aluminium-saucepan.html The smaller, 16cm version has a pouring lip which is not sealed by its lid; if you only want it for heating milk, then you might prefer this one, but the one I have suggested is more versatile due to its sealing lid. Even though it is non-stick I have found over the years that it is always worth rinsing out a milk pan with cold water for a few seconds before pouring in the cold milk and heating it on the AGA Simmering Plate. Likewise, once emptied, immediately fill with cold water; both these tips make the washing up even easier and faster. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Hi Ishbel, No we do not recommend the cast aluminium griddle is used on the hotplate. It is for oven use. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sharon I have checked with my colleagues at AGA CookShop, as sometimes there are considerations to be taken into account before I pen my answer… It is a mistake, but one they will quickly address. Thank you for drawing it to our attention. To work best, this product does need to be pre-heated for up to five minutes on the floor of the Roasting Oven. If you AGA is a Total Control or City 60 (now renamed as the AGA 60, with no change to this cooker’s specification), then the supplied floor grid needs to be used on the floor, between the griddle and the floor. The reason for this on these models with on-off ovens, there is an element embedded in the base of this oven and not to use the supplied floor grid would risk over-heating the griddle. The floor grid is a special accessory only necessary with the Total Control and AGA 60 models. The cooking results with the griddle are comparable on all AGA cookers, provided this caveat is observed. Note that it is not recommended to pre-heat the griddle for longer than five minutes; similarly, it should not be left in the oven for prolonged periods unused, as damage to the non-stick lining could be caused. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Alison I find that the timings are about the same as the oven heat does help but that only makes up for the fact that the base of the oven – and therefore the temperature of the new oven griddle – is a little less fierce than when using a pan on the hotter Boiling Plate. When you are baby-sitting several steaks at the same time, this scenario is most welcome as it is harder to over-cook a steak this way when you don’t mean to. My advice is always this, after purchasing the best steaks I can find, i.e. grass-fed for preference, as aged as possible, with a dark garnet colour and nice yellow fat with decent marbling etc.: Pat the steaks dry with lots of kitchen paper when you remove them from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature before you are ready to cook them and have a platter warming in the Simmering Oven or Warming Oven ahead of time on which you can rest the steaks once cooked – the thicker they are the longer they benefit from resting: “Sear fast, rest slow” is the most important steak cooking mantra to always have at the forefront of your thinking, on any cooker. If you don’t fancy the hassle of making a sauce, I love the simplicity of a good slug of Dijon mustard stirred into a tub of full-fat crème fraîche to serve to hand with the steaks. Just a thought. Have fun with your new oven griddle. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Rachel Thank you for your question. The rectangular oven griddle is not suitable for use on an induction hob. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Hello Roz Yes, you can leave the griddle on the floor of your oven to cook on. However, you can also cook on it by using our grill rack to have higher up in the oven. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Susan Yes, you can use this on the floor of the AGA Roasting Oven, its base is finished nice and flat (and thick) for this exact reason. Here’s a neat trick to know about this product: you can make an assembled layered dish, such as shepherd’s pie, lasagne, fish pie, et al. and freeze it. If you need to, you can cook it from frozen on the base of the Roasting Oven floor and it won’t crack. It will obviously take about 50% longer to cook than if it was freshly made or taken from the ‘fridge, but it is really useful to be able to do this on occasion. I hope that helps.

A. Dear Diana Yes, I have used it and, in fact, I prefer this design to the traditional jam pan design with either the wide, shallow base or the maslin type with the tapered sides and pail handle. On a conventional domestic electric or gas cooker, boiling jam or marmalade for a set is a big ask, as a large pan base has to fit over a relatively modest heat source. The rolling boil called for can sometimes be more of an over-enthusiastic simmer to be honest; with the AGA cookers large hotplates, provided these are kept scrupulously clean, when you apply a large AGA pan, there is a large disk of hot metal applied to the whole of the base of the pan. If you pre-heat your sugar in a full-size AGA roasting tin in the Simmering Oven for half an hour before you need it, to really heat it up (but it won’t get so hot that it will melt), remove this and add to the simmered and tender fruit in the pan on the Simmering Plate. At the same time, slide in another full-size AGA roasting tin full of your jars to sterilise whilst you complete the jam making. Stir the sugar with the pan still on the Simmering Plate until you are sure that every grain has fully dissolved. When you transfer the pan to the Boiling Plate you will be very impressed: it will very quickly begin to seethe and give you a very healthy rolling boil. You will find that setting point is reach much more easily and quickly. Test using your preferred setting test; I favour well-chilled saucers from the refrigerator, but any of the various setting tests can of course be used. As boiling for a set is much faster, you will be rewarded with bright, jewel-like scarlet berry jams rather than muddy brown versions produced from slower boiling that is all too often the case on a conventional cooker. This pan will also fit into the Simmering Oven, so you can often cook the fruit here until tender, before adding the warmed sugar, after five minutes’ or so cooking on the top of the cooker to start things off. When making marmalade, you can cook the Seville oranges whole in water in the covered pan overnight. In the morning, take the pan out and leave uncovered to cool down whilst you have breakfast – put the sugar in the Simmering Oven to heat up. When cool enough to handle, the tender cooked oranges can then be really easily halved and the pulp scooped out and the pips reserved for placing in a muslin bag etc. You will find that it is really easy to slice the cooked peel into whatever thickness of strips you prefer – an absolute doddle compared with the traditional method of cutting up all that quite hard raw peel. The other reason I like this pan is that it is great for making up a bulk batch of stock, soup, casserole, chilli or curry etc. You can also use it for cooking large batches of rice or pasta. The only caveat I would make, as with any cooker, is that I think you will get the best results when making jams when boiling for a set with a single recipe; if you want to double up, do so for the cooking of the fruit, but divide back into two batches and add the sugar to each and cook at two different times – trying to boil for a set with a large batch will never work as well on any cooker in any pan as with a normal-sized batch. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Emily Thank you for your query. We do not recommend that the roasting or baking trays be used on the hot plates of the AGA as this may lead to warping. The best thing for sauces or gravy is to transfer the liquid into one of our stainless steel saucepots available at the following link, before transferring to the hot plates. http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/cookware/new-aga-stainless-steel/stainless-steel-sauce-pots.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sam, Thank you for your question. We would recommend cleaning the AGA hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins with a scourer sponge and hot soapy water. It is best to clean the cookware as soon as it is safe to do so to prevent stains baking onto the products. Also using AGA Bake-o-Glide to line your tins and trays will stop food coming into contact with the cookware. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Shelley, Thank you for your question. Yes the hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins can be used on the floor of the AGA cooker. AGA Total Control and AGA 60 owners need to ensure the floor grid is in position and place tins and trays on this. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Dawn, Thank you for your question. The AGA tray bake pans can not be cleaned in the dishwasher. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Jayne, Thank you for your question. The AGA is supplied with enamelled steel baking tins and trays. The silver anodised tray bake has been developed to produce moist and delicious tray bakes. Ideal for even baking and reduced cooking times. The hard anodised tins and trays are also great for baking and are excellent conductors of even heat. Neither can be cleaned in the dishwasher so we would always recommend lining the tins with Bake-O-Glide for an easy clean up. We do not recommend using metal utensils on any of these products. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Abigail We do not recommend that the roasting tins are used on the hot plates as they would not offer optimum heat distibution. The best way to make gravy to the hot plate would be to transfer the liquid into one of our stainless steel saucepots available at the following link: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/cookware/new-aga-stainless-steel/stainless-steel-sauce-pots.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear John This is the baby to consider: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cast-aluminium-rectangular-double-roaster.html It is primarily sold to my mind for covered roasting in a conventional oven, keeping the oven itself from getting too dirty from splashes. As roasting strictly speaking is defined “cooking of food using radiant dry heat” (Larousse Gastronomique), such use is not really roasting at all, but baking, but that is not your concern. The Aga Roasting Oven does fulfil the requirement as it uses radiant heat as the primary means of transferring heat to the food being cooked and it is a dry environment, as steam is not contained (as with the covered roaster), but taken away by means of the oven venting system. Where this utensil will hopefully score for you is used for roasting without its lid. Then it will continue to roast using radiant heat. The 6mm flat base can also be used on the Aga hotplates and makes excellent conduct when you want to finish the dish by making gravy or a sauce in the base, both when making the roux and when you whisk in the liquids. The lid is also a ridged griddle and works on the Aga Boiling Plate to grill steaks, chops, cutlets and meatier cuts of fish such as tuna, marlin and swordfish. It is also good with chicken breasts for a chicken Caesar salad and for cooking liver, plus of course for griddling any vegetables: I use it for aubergine slices when making mousakka. Its final use of course is as an excellent casserole: brown the meat in batches in the large base, placing each batch in turn when well browned in the upturned lid. Then continue with the alliums and so on and then return the resting ingredients to the base, add the remaining items and pour over the stock, wine or beer etc. Its base will come quickly to simmering point before you give a couple of minutes on the Simmering Plate. Cover and transfer to the Simmering Oven to cook “low and slow” for 2-4 hours, depending on the cut of meat. The only drawback is that this utensil has to be used front to back in the ovens; it is not designed to hang from the oven runners like the normal Aga roasting tins. Nevertheless, I think it is perfect for what you have described. I hope that helps. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Assuring you of our best attention at all times. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Nigel Thank you for your question. Our cast aluminium cookware is suitable for all heat sources except induction and as this is cast aluminium, it should not cause any discolouration. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sheila The AGA Cake Baker is designed for large, deep cakes that require 45 minutes’ or longer baking at a moderate temperature. A semi-rich fruit cake in the smallest tin can take as little as 45 minutes but for most cakes of the larger two sizes take anywhere from an hour to 1½ hours. Think of cakes such as cherry cake, most fruit cakes including Dundee cake, Madeira and seed cake et al. Very rich fruit cakes such as wedding cakes and Christmas cake fare better cooked for the whole time from raw in the Simmering Oven – see the AGA Book. Pre-heat the empty ACB base and lid on the floor of the oven whilst you line the tin and make the cake. The lid needs to be hot as otherwise in the early stage of baking steam would otherwise condense on the lid and drops of water would drip down and mark the top of the cake. A big advantage of the ACB is that you can still cook high temperature foods at the same time, e.g. frying on the floor of the Roasting Oven with the ACB at the rear of the oven and/or bake scones or puff pastry at the top of the oven, even over the ACB. If you want to make the ACB even more moderate than its normal setting, set it on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven: by cutting of direct conducted base heat to the ACB you obtain an even mellower baking environment; I use this when baking an enriched cake where there is a risk of scorching an ingredient, e.g. a flourless chocolate chiffon cake. You can also use the ACB to bake two 1 lb loaf tins of something like a tea loaf. Place the ACB on a grid shelf with its lid to pre-heat. Place one tin in the carrier and cook in the ACB towards the rear of the oven. Place the second tin on the grid shelf in front of the ACB and protect with a “N” tent of double-folded aluminium foil. The ACB plus the tent together will afford the second loaf tin sufficient protection. Remember that for the following cakes you should not be using the ACB: a Victoria sandwich in two tins or one deeper tin, traybakes, Swiss roll, brownies and blondies and for all sponges. Here you bake low down in the Roasting Oven with a cold plain shelf on the second set of runners from above. Turn the tin(s) at half-time. If the mixture is very deep and will take longer than 25-30 minutes to cook through, replace the now hot plain shelf with a fresh cold one (or improvise with a full-size hard anodised AGA baking tray or even a full-size AGA roasting tin. For a full explanation of all the different AGA baking techniques for a two-oven AGA, see the baking chapter in my, “Complete Book of AGA Know-How”, Absolute Press, available from your AGA shop or Distributor or online from www.agacookshop.co.uk . I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Claire Thank you for your question. Yes, our stainless steel cookware is suitable for all heat sources including induction. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good Morning Julia Thank you for your question. The internal depth of the stainless steel saute pan is approximately 6cm.

A. Good morning Mrs Buchanan Thank you for your query. The Rayburn Saute casserole features our older stainless steel design.

Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Anthea Thank you for your question. This pan weighs 2.2Kg with the lid on. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Susan, Thank you for your question. The total capacity for the preserving pan is 11 litres, diameter of the pan is 28cm and height is 19cm (not including the lid and knob). I can also confirm that this pan (including body, lid and knob) does fit in all AGA ovens. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Diana Yes, I have used it and, in fact, I prefer this design to the traditional jam pan design with either the wide, shallow base or the maslin type with the tapered sides and pail handle. On a conventional domestic electric or gas cooker, boiling jam or marmalade for a set is a big ask, as a large pan base has to fit over a relatively modest heat source. The rolling boil called for can sometimes be more of an over-enthusiastic simmer to be honest; with the AGA cookers large hotplates, provided these are kept scrupulously clean, when you apply a large AGA pan, there is a large disk of hot metal applied to the whole of the base of the pan. If you pre-heat your sugar in a full-size AGA roasting tin in the Simmering Oven for half an hour before you need it, to really heat it up (but it won’t get so hot that it will melt), remove this and add to the simmered and tender fruit in the pan on the Simmering Plate. At the same time, slide in another full-size AGA roasting tin full of your jars to sterilise whilst you complete the jam making. Stir the sugar with the pan still on the Simmering Plate until you are sure that every grain has fully dissolved. When you transfer the pan to the Boiling Plate you will be very impressed: it will very quickly begin to seethe and give you a very healthy rolling boil. You will find that setting point is reach much more easily and quickly. Test using your preferred setting test; I favour well-chilled saucers from the refrigerator, but any of the various setting tests can of course be used. As boiling for a set is much faster, you will be rewarded with bright, jewel-like scarlet berry jams rather than muddy brown versions produced from slower boiling that is all too often the case on a conventional cooker. This pan will also fit into the Simmering Oven, so you can often cook the fruit here until tender, before adding the warmed sugar, after five minutes’ or so cooking on the top of the cooker to start things off. When making marmalade, you can cook the Seville oranges whole in water in the covered pan overnight. In the morning, take the pan out and leave uncovered to cool down whilst you have breakfast – put the sugar in the Simmering Oven to heat up. When cool enough to handle, the tender cooked oranges can then be really easily halved and the pulp scooped out and the pips reserved for placing in a muslin bag etc. You will find that it is really easy to slice the cooked peel into whatever thickness of strips you prefer – an absolute doddle compared with the traditional method of cutting up all that quite hard raw peel. The other reason I like this pan is that it is great for making up a bulk batch of stock, soup, casserole, chilli or curry etc. You can also use it for cooking large batches of rice or pasta. The only caveat I would make, as with any cooker, is that I think you will get the best results when making jams when boiling for a set with a single recipe; if you want to double up, do so for the cooking of the fruit, but divide back into two batches and add the sugar to each and cook at two different times – trying to boil for a set with a large batch will never work as well on any cooker in any pan as with a normal-sized batch. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Hi Ishbel, No we do not recommend the cast aluminium griddle is used on the hotplate. It is for oven use. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sharon I have checked with my colleagues at AGA CookShop, as sometimes there are considerations to be taken into account before I pen my answer… It is a mistake, but one they will quickly address. Thank you for drawing it to our attention. To work best, this product does need to be pre-heated for up to five minutes on the floor of the Roasting Oven. If you AGA is a Total Control or City 60 (now renamed as the AGA 60, with no change to this cooker’s specification), then the supplied floor grid needs to be used on the floor, between the griddle and the floor. The reason for this on these models with on-off ovens, there is an element embedded in the base of this oven and not to use the supplied floor grid would risk over-heating the griddle. The floor grid is a special accessory only necessary with the Total Control and AGA 60 models. The cooking results with the griddle are comparable on all AGA cookers, provided this caveat is observed. Note that it is not recommended to pre-heat the griddle for longer than five minutes; similarly, it should not be left in the oven for prolonged periods unused, as damage to the non-stick lining could be caused. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Alison I find that the timings are about the same as the oven heat does help but that only makes up for the fact that the base of the oven – and therefore the temperature of the new oven griddle – is a little less fierce than when using a pan on the hotter Boiling Plate. When you are baby-sitting several steaks at the same time, this scenario is most welcome as it is harder to over-cook a steak this way when you don’t mean to. My advice is always this, after purchasing the best steaks I can find, i.e. grass-fed for preference, as aged as possible, with a dark garnet colour and nice yellow fat with decent marbling etc.: Pat the steaks dry with lots of kitchen paper when you remove them from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature before you are ready to cook them and have a platter warming in the Simmering Oven or Warming Oven ahead of time on which you can rest the steaks once cooked – the thicker they are the longer they benefit from resting: “Sear fast, rest slow” is the most important steak cooking mantra to always have at the forefront of your thinking, on any cooker. If you don’t fancy the hassle of making a sauce, I love the simplicity of a good slug of Dijon mustard stirred into a tub of full-fat crème fraîche to serve to hand with the steaks. Just a thought. Have fun with your new oven griddle. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Rachel Thank you for your question. The rectangular oven griddle is not suitable for use on an induction hob. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Thank you for your query. The dimensions of the cast aluminium roaster are the interior measurements. The height with the lid on is 13cm, and with the lid inverted it is 10.5cm. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear John This is the baby to consider: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cast-aluminium-rectangular-double-roaster.html It is primarily sold to my mind for covered roasting in a conventional oven, keeping the oven itself from getting too dirty from splashes. As roasting strictly speaking is defined “cooking of food using radiant dry heat” (Larousse Gastronomique), such use is not really roasting at all, but baking, but that is not your concern. The Aga Roasting Oven does fulfil the requirement as it uses radiant heat as the primary means of transferring heat to the food being cooked and it is a dry environment, as steam is not contained (as with the covered roaster), but taken away by means of the oven venting system. Where this utensil will hopefully score for you is used for roasting without its lid. Then it will continue to roast using radiant heat. The 6mm flat base can also be used on the Aga hotplates and makes excellent conduct when you want to finish the dish by making gravy or a sauce in the base, both when making the roux and when you whisk in the liquids. The lid is also a ridged griddle and works on the Aga Boiling Plate to grill steaks, chops, cutlets and meatier cuts of fish such as tuna, marlin and swordfish. It is also good with chicken breasts for a chicken Caesar salad and for cooking liver, plus of course for griddling any vegetables: I use it for aubergine slices when making mousakka. Its final use of course is as an excellent casserole: brown the meat in batches in the large base, placing each batch in turn when well browned in the upturned lid. Then continue with the alliums and so on and then return the resting ingredients to the base, add the remaining items and pour over the stock, wine or beer etc. Its base will come quickly to simmering point before you give a couple of minutes on the Simmering Plate. Cover and transfer to the Simmering Oven to cook “low and slow” for 2-4 hours, depending on the cut of meat. The only drawback is that this utensil has to be used front to back in the ovens; it is not designed to hang from the oven runners like the normal Aga roasting tins. Nevertheless, I think it is perfect for what you have described. I hope that helps. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Assuring you of our best attention at all times. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Susan Yes, you can use this on the floor of the AGA Roasting Oven, its base is finished nice and flat (and thick) for this exact reason. Here’s a neat trick to know about this product: you can make an assembled layered dish, such as shepherd’s pie, lasagne, fish pie, et al. and freeze it. If you need to, you can cook it from frozen on the base of the Roasting Oven floor and it won’t crack. It will obviously take about 50% longer to cook than if it was freshly made or taken from the ‘fridge, but it is really useful to be able to do this on occasion. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Penny, Thank you for your question. The dimensions for the roasting dish are 34.5cm x 25.5cm, with a depth of 5.5cm. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Kelvin, Thank you for your question. The hard anodised roasting tins are not designed for use on the AGA hotplate.

The classic stainless steel saucepans are dishwasher safe and induction friendly with a 25 year guarantee. Also available in the stainless steel range is the saucepot with stacking lid featuring a non-stick finish and ergonomic handle. The cast aluminum saucepan features a non-stick coating and removable handle for easy transfer from hotplate to oven, with the smaller size pan featuring a pouring lip ideal for milk and sauces. Hope this helps. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sam, Thank you for your question. We would recommend cleaning the AGA hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins with a scourer sponge and hot soapy water. It is best to clean the cookware as soon as it is safe to do so to prevent stains baking onto the products. Also using AGA Bake-o-Glide to line your tins and trays will stop food coming into contact with the cookware. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Shelley, Thank you for your question. Yes the hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins can be used on the floor of the AGA cooker. AGA Total Control and AGA 60 owners need to ensure the floor grid is in position and place tins and trays on this. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Jayne, Thank you for your question. The AGA is supplied with enamelled steel baking tins and trays. The silver anodised tray bake has been developed to produce moist and delicious tray bakes. Ideal for even baking and reduced cooking times. The hard anodised tins and trays are also great for baking and are excellent conductors of even heat. Neither can be cleaned in the dishwasher so we would always recommend lining the tins with Bake-O-Glide for an easy clean up. We do not recommend using metal utensils on any of these products. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Tina Using semolina or flour as a dry lubricant or release agent is absolutely the route to go. As this isn’t working my first thought is that your pizza dough is erring on the wet side. The usual way describe the correct texture for a yeast dough is “silky”: I would suggest you work in a little more strong white bread flour next time and you should be good to go, again using some semolina, polenta or flour. My advice would be to have a dummy run when your husband isn’t around before you show off. We are on the third version of AGA pizza baker’s paddle and all have sold well over the last 10 years or so with great feedback, so I am sure if you persevere with a slightly dryer dough all will be well. A final thought: I also use mine to manoeuvre a ceramic flan dish from the back of the floor of the oven to the front, before picking it up with an AGA gauntlet, so it does have other uses. Please do let me know how you get on. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good afternoon Dawn The Traditional AGA Book of Slow Cooking was first published in 1997. Please do not hesitate to contact us of we can be of any further assistance. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Thank you for your query. Mary Berry's One Step Ahead book includes timings for both conventional and AGA Cooking. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. There are three reasons for the temperature of the tank being limited at 98°C. The first is that most teas should be brewed at 98°C or lower. The leaves will cook if the water is boiling at 100°C and can cause a bitter taste to develop. The second reason is to comply with WRAS certification and Part G of the building regulations which does not allow a 100°C product to be fitted in to new build homes. Products that reach 100°C do not comply with these standards so sales to new builds are limited. The third and possibly most important factor is safety. 100°C water spits and spurts during discharge due to the creation of air bubbles when the tank is boiling. In addition boiling water creates excess steam during dispense, which can burn arms when reaching across the tap. By eliminating the drawbacks that occur with using 100°C water, the AGA system are able to deliver the right temperature in a safe and controlled way every time it’s required. The AGA 4-in-1 Tap systems are vented units, which mean that excess steam is released from the boiler and not kept in a pressurised vessel. This means that they are not affected by the pressure directive and that the product uses a pumped system, providing safe, consistent and controlled flow from the spout at all times.

A. The AGA 4-in-1 Taps are designed to fit a standard 35mm tap hole. This means a simple like for like replacement for the majority of taps that are fitted in the UK so there is no need to invest in a new sink or worktop to accommodate this product.

A. Whether the AGA 4-in-1 Tap is used in conjunction with a stainless steel, granite or ceramic sink, there are no issues with using 98°C water. Stainless steel, composite and ceramic materials are produced in part by extreme heating methods so they are inherently suitable for dispensing very hot water in to.

A. Spares will be available for your AGA 4-in-1 Tap and can be ordered by calling in to your local AGA shop or by calling AGA Consumer Services on 0800 083 0602.

A. A Replacement Filter Cartridge or Tank Descaler Kit can be ordered by contacting your local AGA shop or by calling AGA Consumer Services on 0800 083 0602.

A. The length of time that the filter will last depends on a few factors: 1. The water hardness in the area 2. The amount of use through varying size of families or frequency of home cooking As a guide line: In very hard water areas the maximum lifetime of the cartridge is 1,020 litres or 4,000 cups of tea In soft water areas the maximum lifetime of the cartridge is 1,750 litres or 7,000 cups of tea The cartridge may last from anywhere between 6 to 36 months depending on all of these factors.

A. Dear Kathleen Provided you use fresh fish and you allow the white sauce to cool until it is stone cold before you pour it over the fish in the dish, you can cover with cling film and freeze. Mashed potato does not respond well to freezing, so I would suggest you steam the potatoes using the AGA Simmering Oven method when you want to finish the recipe off. Mash the potatoes – preferably using a potato ricer – and spread over the defrosted sauce topped fish. You will preserve the best texture from the frozen fish if you defrost the fish in its sauce overnight in the refrigerator. If using frozen prawns and scallops I would keep these in the freezer when originally making the fish pie and defrost these overnight and just poke them into the defrosted sauce, along with the peas, which can be added frozen; as they are so small, they will defrost and cook in situ when you bake the pie. If you are wondering about freezing this recipe once it is made and baked all at the same time, the answer, again, is yes, provided the fish used wasn’t previously frozen. It would then be safe to do this, but I wouldn’t recommend doing so, as the texture of the frozen mashed potato topping doesn’t make for good eating when it is defrosted and reheated. A far better plan, to my mind, would be to cool any leftovers as quickly as possible and then store this, covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. To reheat, place in a fresh shallow baking dish, lightly greased, and bake on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven with a cold plain shelf above on the second set of runners. Re-heat in this way for about 20 minutes or so, until piping hot right through. If your AGA has a Baking Oven, you could use the centre of the Baking Oven instead. I hope that helps.

A. Dear Basil, Thank you for your question. The AGA baking oven can run at slightly different temperatures dependent on how the cooker has been used e.g. lots of cooking on the boiling plate can reduce the heat of the baking oven. Therefore we would recommend you start off the pudding lower down in the baking oven, moving it up the runners to increase the heat. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sue, Thank you for your question. As the recipe requires the tin to be greased and lined we would suggest you follow these guidelines. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Collette I am sorry to hear of your meringue angst! Using egg whites that are older rather than as fresh as possible works best for all types of meringue (obviously, still within a sensible use by date). Only ever use a glass, china or metal bowl and ensure that both it and the whisk(s) that you are using are scrupulously clean and absolutely grease free. If in any doubt, wash up by hand with hot soapy water and then rinse well with hot and then cold water, leave to drain and take a fresh tea towel so you know that that is laundry clean. I often save make meringues and Pavlovas for the moment when I am unloading the dishwasher and I therefore know that the stainless steel bowl and the balloon whisk from my KitchenAid stand mixer is squeaky clean. Plastic mixing bowls are the worst, once they have had fat of any kind in it you will never remove very trace. So a Kenwood chef with a plastic bowl (very popular in the 1980’s) is a recipe for disaster. Carefully separate the whites, ensuring that absolutely no yolk contaminates them (they would introduce the dreaded grease). I favour 2 oz (55g) of caster sugar per egg white, and would always use cane sugar (Tate3 & Lyle) in preference to home grown beet sugar (such as Silver Spoon). Whisk the egg whites until like clouds then, with the mixer running at full speed, add the sugar slowly, a teaspoon at a time. Adding the sugar too early and to quickly are the main reasons for getting a poor volume. When it is all incorporated, turn off the machine and take a small amount of the mixture between two clean fingers and rub. If it feels at all gritty, whisk for longer, stopping and testing after each minute. The volume of air you manage to whisk into the whites is what will make the mixture rise: as they are slowly heated up, all those small bubbles swell just like balloons deflate if blown up in a warm room and then hung in a cool room, just the process is the other way around. Dry low down on a grid shelf on the floor of your coolest oven, so the Warming Oven if you have one or on a grid shelf on the floor of the Simmering Oven. If you have a manually controlled oven vent fan, make sure it is turned on for the period you are drying them out – usually somewhere between 1½ - 2½ hours. I hope that helps. Let me know how you get on. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Thank you for your question. Yes shop bought meringues would work as a topping. Obviously there is no need to dry these out as you would if you made these yourself. Hope that helps. Kind Regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear John This is the baby to consider: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cast-aluminium-rectangular-double-roaster.html It is primarily sold to my mind for covered roasting in a conventional oven, keeping the oven itself from getting too dirty from splashes. As roasting strictly speaking is defined “cooking of food using radiant dry heat” (Larousse Gastronomique), such use is not really roasting at all, but baking, but that is not your concern. The Aga Roasting Oven does fulfil the requirement as it uses radiant heat as the primary means of transferring heat to the food being cooked and it is a dry environment, as steam is not contained (as with the covered roaster), but taken away by means of the oven venting system. Where this utensil will hopefully score for you is used for roasting without its lid. Then it will continue to roast using radiant heat. The 6mm flat base can also be used on the Aga hotplates and makes excellent conduct when you want to finish the dish by making gravy or a sauce in the base, both when making the roux and when you whisk in the liquids. The lid is also a ridged griddle and works on the Aga Boiling Plate to grill steaks, chops, cutlets and meatier cuts of fish such as tuna, marlin and swordfish. It is also good with chicken breasts for a chicken Caesar salad and for cooking liver, plus of course for griddling any vegetables: I use it for aubergine slices when making mousakka. Its final use of course is as an excellent casserole: brown the meat in batches in the large base, placing each batch in turn when well browned in the upturned lid. Then continue with the alliums and so on and then return the resting ingredients to the base, add the remaining items and pour over the stock, wine or beer etc. Its base will come quickly to simmering point before you give a couple of minutes on the Simmering Plate. Cover and transfer to the Simmering Oven to cook “low and slow” for 2-4 hours, depending on the cut of meat. The only drawback is that this utensil has to be used front to back in the ovens; it is not designed to hang from the oven runners like the normal Aga roasting tins. Nevertheless, I think it is perfect for what you have described. I hope that helps. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

A. Good Afternoon Thank you for your query. The splash shield simply fits over the top of the AGA lid handle which holds this in place to cover the inside of the lid. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Pamela Thank you for your question. As the splash shield is designed to protect the lids of your aga from food splashes, we would not recommend that these are used to cook on as the bake-o glide itself is slightly thicker and therefore would not radiate the heat as well as the regular Bake-O-Glide. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Rosemary Speaking as someone who is half Welsh, I personally much prefer the effect obtained by cooking Welsh cakes directly on the coolest end of the Rayburn hotplate. Lightly oil with a thick pad of kitchen paper using a vegetable oil or a little lard before and in between each batch. Nevertheless you have asked a good question and there is a product that would probably suit you very well. It is called Bake-O-Glide and there is a Rayburn Cook Set which contains two pieces: one that is cut in the corners so that it fits your Rayburn meat tin and also a rectangle that fits the cold plain shelf, used mainly for cooking biscuits and scones and for drying out meringues and Pavlovas in the Lower Oven. This latter piece may also be used on the cool end of the Rayburn hotplate for cooking Welsh cakes and also drop scones and crêpes. Bake-O-Glide is sold by AGA and Rayburn stockists and also online from www.agacookshop.co.uk . I hope that helps. Best wishes

A. Dear Tina Using semolina or flour as a dry lubricant or release agent is absolutely the route to go. As this isn’t working my first thought is that your pizza dough is erring on the wet side. The usual way describe the correct texture for a yeast dough is “silky”: I would suggest you work in a little more strong white bread flour next time and you should be good to go, again using some semolina, polenta or flour. My advice would be to have a dummy run when your husband isn’t around before you show off. We are on the third version of AGA pizza baker’s paddle and all have sold well over the last 10 years or so with great feedback, so I am sure if you persevere with a slightly dryer dough all will be well. A final thought: I also use mine to manoeuvre a ceramic flan dish from the back of the floor of the oven to the front, before picking it up with an AGA gauntlet, so it does have other uses. Please do let me know how you get on. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Jon, Thank you for your question. The loaf pans are not dishwasher safe. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Mike If you are baking the bread with the grid shelf on the bottom set of runners, this would indeed give you the problem you describe. Bake loaves of bread in tins on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven. Bake for around 25-30 minutes, turning the tins around halfway through cooking. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Nicola, Thank you for your question. The 1lb AGA loaf tin will fit into the AGA baking tray. We would suggest using the AGA Cake Baker to successfully bake fruit cakes in a two oven AGA cooker - it creates a baking temperature within the roasting oven. http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cake-baker.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Vicki, Thank you for your question. AGA cooking specialist Dawn Roads advises the following: "I find that the logo comes out better with a white bread dough and a slightly wetter mixture. Grease the AGA loaf tins with melted butter (I find animal fats work better than oil) with particular attention to the letters and let this solidify before putting in the dough. Please note the letters may not be as well distinguished in a seeded, brown loaf." Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Hi Ishbel, No we do not recommend the cast aluminium griddle is used on the hotplate. It is for oven use. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sharon I have checked with my colleagues at AGA CookShop, as sometimes there are considerations to be taken into account before I pen my answer… It is a mistake, but one they will quickly address. Thank you for drawing it to our attention. To work best, this product does need to be pre-heated for up to five minutes on the floor of the Roasting Oven. If you AGA is a Total Control or City 60 (now renamed as the AGA 60, with no change to this cooker’s specification), then the supplied floor grid needs to be used on the floor, between the griddle and the floor. The reason for this on these models with on-off ovens, there is an element embedded in the base of this oven and not to use the supplied floor grid would risk over-heating the griddle. The floor grid is a special accessory only necessary with the Total Control and AGA 60 models. The cooking results with the griddle are comparable on all AGA cookers, provided this caveat is observed. Note that it is not recommended to pre-heat the griddle for longer than five minutes; similarly, it should not be left in the oven for prolonged periods unused, as damage to the non-stick lining could be caused. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Alison I find that the timings are about the same as the oven heat does help but that only makes up for the fact that the base of the oven – and therefore the temperature of the new oven griddle – is a little less fierce than when using a pan on the hotter Boiling Plate. When you are baby-sitting several steaks at the same time, this scenario is most welcome as it is harder to over-cook a steak this way when you don’t mean to. My advice is always this, after purchasing the best steaks I can find, i.e. grass-fed for preference, as aged as possible, with a dark garnet colour and nice yellow fat with decent marbling etc.: Pat the steaks dry with lots of kitchen paper when you remove them from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature before you are ready to cook them and have a platter warming in the Simmering Oven or Warming Oven ahead of time on which you can rest the steaks once cooked – the thicker they are the longer they benefit from resting: “Sear fast, rest slow” is the most important steak cooking mantra to always have at the forefront of your thinking, on any cooker. If you don’t fancy the hassle of making a sauce, I love the simplicity of a good slug of Dijon mustard stirred into a tub of full-fat crème fraîche to serve to hand with the steaks. Just a thought. Have fun with your new oven griddle. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Rachel Thank you for your question. The rectangular oven griddle is not suitable for use on an induction hob. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Hello Roz Yes, you can leave the griddle on the floor of your oven to cook on. However, you can also cook on it by using our grill rack to have higher up in the oven. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good afternoon Thank you for your query. The 20cm cast aluminium casserole with skillet lid has a 2.5ltr capacity whereas the 24cm has 3ltrs. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Catherine, Thank you for your question. The AGA cast aluminium casserole will certainly be lighter and easier to handle than cast iron. It is a 2-in-1 product with the lid providing an excellent skillet. The Teflon Platinum Plus non-stick coating inside and out is scratch resistant and easy to clean - we do advise not to use metal utensils with this range. The casserole will easily create delicious slow cooked stews - the heavy gauge flat base ensures quick and even heat distribution and retention and also work well on a low heat. An alternative option would be AGA stainless steel casseroles - this range features 6mm superthermic base which moves towards the heat source to give perfect contact with the AGA hotplate. The flat lids allows you to cleverly stack the casseroles in the simmering oven. This range is dishwasher safe, induction friendly and comes with a 25 year guarantee. Hope this helps.

A. Good afternoon Linda Thank you for your query. These baking trays are designed to slide onto the runners of the AGA cookers. For a baking tray to fit the Rayburn cookers you would need the following item: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/rayburn/all-rayburn/rayburn-hard-anodised-baking-tray.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Karen Thank you for your question. The roasting tins and baking trays which are designed to fit on the AGA runners will not fit in the Rayburn ovens. However, we do have a range of these designed to fit on the runners of the Rayburn.

A. Dear Stephen, Thank you for your e mail. The dimensions for the baking tray is 34.2cm x 23.5cm with a depth of 3cm. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Susan Yes, you can use this on the floor of the AGA Roasting Oven, its base is finished nice and flat (and thick) for this exact reason. Here’s a neat trick to know about this product: you can make an assembled layered dish, such as shepherd’s pie, lasagne, fish pie, et al. and freeze it. If you need to, you can cook it from frozen on the base of the Roasting Oven floor and it won’t crack. It will obviously take about 50% longer to cook than if it was freshly made or taken from the ‘fridge, but it is really useful to be able to do this on occasion. I hope that helps.

A. Good Afternoon Thank you for your query. The splash shield simply fits over the top of the AGA lid handle which holds this in place to cover the inside of the lid. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good morning Pamela Thank you for your question. As the splash shield is designed to protect the lids of your aga from food splashes, we would not recommend that these are used to cook on as the bake-o glide itself is slightly thicker and therefore would not radiate the heat as well as the regular Bake-O-Glide. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Good afternoon Thank you for your query. We can confirm that the Bake-O-Glide products are PFOA free. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Julia, Thank you for your question, the diameter is 35.5cm. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Rosemary Speaking as someone who is half Welsh, I personally much prefer the effect obtained by cooking Welsh cakes directly on the coolest end of the Rayburn hotplate. Lightly oil with a thick pad of kitchen paper using a vegetable oil or a little lard before and in between each batch. Nevertheless you have asked a good question and there is a product that would probably suit you very well. It is called Bake-O-Glide and there is a Rayburn Cook Set which contains two pieces: one that is cut in the corners so that it fits your Rayburn meat tin and also a rectangle that fits the cold plain shelf, used mainly for cooking biscuits and scones and for drying out meringues and Pavlovas in the Lower Oven. This latter piece may also be used on the cool end of the Rayburn hotplate for cooking Welsh cakes and also drop scones and crêpes. Bake-O-Glide is sold by AGA and Rayburn stockists and also online from www.agacookshop.co.uk . I hope that helps. Best wishes

A. Good Morning Susan, Thank you for contacting us. Yes, we do have replacement tea pot lids If you contact us on 0800 804 6296, we can arrange getting a replacement lid to you. Best Wishes The AGA Cook Shop Team

A. Dear Tina Using semolina or flour as a dry lubricant or release agent is absolutely the route to go. As this isn’t working my first thought is that your pizza dough is erring on the wet side. The usual way describe the correct texture for a yeast dough is “silky”: I would suggest you work in a little more strong white bread flour next time and you should be good to go, again using some semolina, polenta or flour. My advice would be to have a dummy run when your husband isn’t around before you show off. We are on the third version of AGA pizza baker’s paddle and all have sold well over the last 10 years or so with great feedback, so I am sure if you persevere with a slightly dryer dough all will be well. A final thought: I also use mine to manoeuvre a ceramic flan dish from the back of the floor of the oven to the front, before picking it up with an AGA gauntlet, so it does have other uses. Please do let me know how you get on. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Hi Tim, Thank you for your question. The dimensions of your Rayburn ovens should be as follows: Main Oven Width 35cm Height 31cm Depth 40cm Lower Oven Width 35cm Height 20cm Depth 40cm Therefore this meat tin should fit your oven. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Kelvin, Thank you for your question. The hard anodised roasting tins are not designed for use on the AGA hotplate.

A. Good morning Emily Thank you for your query. We do not recommend that the roasting or baking trays be used on the hot plates of the AGA as this may lead to warping.

A. Dear Sam, Thank you for your question. We would recommend cleaning the AGA hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins with a scourer sponge and hot soapy water. It is best to clean the cookware as soon as it is safe to do so to prevent stains baking onto the products. Also using AGA Bake-o-Glide to line your tins and trays will stop food coming into contact with the cookware. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Shelley, Thank you for your question. Yes the hard anodised baking trays and roasting tins can be used on the floor of the AGA cooker. AGA Total Control and AGA 60 owners need to ensure the floor grid is in position and place tins and trays on this. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Joy, Thank you for your question. The tray is around 3cm deep. We do have a tin that is specifically for tray bakes: http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/tray-bake-pans.html Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Jon, Thank you for your question. The loaf pans are not dishwasher safe. Best wishes, AGA Cookshop.

A. Dear Mike If you are baking the bread with the grid shelf on the bottom set of runners, this would indeed give you the problem you describe. Bake loaves of bread in tins on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven. Bake for around 25-30 minutes, turning the tins around halfway through cooking. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Nicola, Thank you for your question. The 1lb AGA loaf tin will fit into the AGA baking tray. We would suggest using the AGA Cake Baker to successfully bake fruit cakes in a two oven AGA cooker - it creates a baking temperature within the roasting oven. http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cake-baker.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Vicki, Thank you for your question. AGA cooking specialist Dawn Roads advises the following: "I find that the logo comes out better with a white bread dough and a slightly wetter mixture. Grease the AGA loaf tins with melted butter (I find animal fats work better than oil) with particular attention to the letters and let this solidify before putting in the dough. Please note the letters may not be as well distinguished in a seeded, brown loaf." Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Dawn, Thank you for your question. The AGA tray bake pans can not be cleaned in the dishwasher. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Jayne, Thank you for your question. The AGA is supplied with enamelled steel baking tins and trays. The silver anodised tray bake has been developed to produce moist and delicious tray bakes. Ideal for even baking and reduced cooking times. The hard anodised tins and trays are also great for baking and are excellent conductors of even heat. Neither can be cleaned in the dishwasher so we would always recommend lining the tins with Bake-O-Glide for an easy clean up. We do not recommend using metal utensils on any of these products.

A. Hi Ishbel, No we do not recommend the cast aluminium griddle is used on the hotplate. It is for oven use. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Sharon I have checked with my colleagues at AGA CookShop, as sometimes there are considerations to be taken into account before I pen my answer… It is a mistake, but one they will quickly address. Thank you for drawing it to our attention. To work best, this product does need to be pre-heated for up to five minutes on the floor of the Roasting Oven. If you AGA is a Total Control or City 60 (now renamed as the AGA 60, with no change to this cooker’s specification), then the supplied floor grid needs to be used on the floor, between the griddle and the floor. The reason for this on these models with on-off ovens, there is an element embedded in the base of this oven and not to use the supplied floor grid would risk over-heating the griddle. The floor grid is a special accessory only necessary with the Total Control and AGA 60 models. The cooking results with the griddle are comparable on all AGA cookers, provided this caveat is observed. Note that it is not recommended to pre-heat the griddle for longer than five minutes; similarly, it should not be left in the oven for prolonged periods unused, as damage to the non-stick lining could be caused. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Alison I find that the timings are about the same as the oven heat does help but that only makes up for the fact that the base of the oven – and therefore the temperature of the new oven griddle – is a little less fierce than when using a pan on the hotter Boiling Plate. When you are baby-sitting several steaks at the same time, this scenario is most welcome as it is harder to over-cook a steak this way when you don’t mean to. My advice is always this, after purchasing the best steaks I can find, i.e. grass-fed for preference, as aged as possible, with a dark garnet colour and nice yellow fat with decent marbling etc.: Pat the steaks dry with lots of kitchen paper when you remove them from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature before you are ready to cook them and have a platter warming in the Simmering Oven or Warming Oven ahead of time on which you can rest the steaks once cooked – the thicker they are the longer they benefit from resting: “Sear fast, rest slow” is the most important steak cooking mantra to always have at the forefront of your thinking, on any cooker. If you don’t fancy the hassle of making a sauce, I love the simplicity of a good slug of Dijon mustard stirred into a tub of full-fat crème fraîche to serve to hand with the steaks. Just a thought. Have fun with your new oven griddle. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Good morning Rachel Thank you for your question. The rectangular oven griddle is not suitable for use on an induction hob. Kind regards AGA Cookshop

Cook from frozen on the floor of the Roasting Oven (on the floor grid on Total Control or AGA 60 models) and it will defrost and cook without cracking. Allow 50% longer cooking time.

A. Dear Sheila The AGA Cake Baker is designed for large, deep cakes that require 45 minutes’ or longer baking at a moderate temperature. A semi-rich fruit cake in the smallest tin can take as little as 45 minutes but for most cakes of the larger two sizes take anywhere from an hour to 1½ hours. Think of cakes such as cherry cake, most fruit cakes including Dundee cake, Madeira and seed cake et al. Very rich fruit cakes such as wedding cakes and Christmas cake fare better cooked for the whole time from raw in the Simmering Oven – see the AGA Book. Pre-heat the empty ACB base and lid on the floor of the oven whilst you line the tin and make the cake. The lid needs to be hot as otherwise in the early stage of baking steam would otherwise condense on the lid and drops of water would drip down and mark the top of the cake. A big advantage of the ACB is that you can still cook high temperature foods at the same time, e.g. frying on the floor of the Roasting Oven with the ACB at the rear of the oven and/or bake scones or puff pastry at the top of the oven, even over the ACB. If you want to make the ACB even more moderate than its normal setting, set it on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven: by cutting of direct conducted base heat to the ACB you obtain an even mellower baking environment; I use this when baking an enriched cake where there is a risk of scorching an ingredient, e.g. a flourless chocolate chiffon cake. You can also use the ACB to bake two 1 lb loaf tins of something like a tea loaf. Place the ACB on a grid shelf with its lid to pre-heat. Place one tin in the carrier and cook in the ACB towards the rear of the oven. Place the second tin on the grid shelf in front of the ACB and protect with a “N” tent of double-folded aluminium foil. The ACB plus the tent together will afford the second loaf tin sufficient protection. Remember that for the following cakes you should not be using the ACB: a Victoria sandwich in two tins or one deeper tin, traybakes, Swiss roll, brownies and blondies and for all sponges. Here you bake low down in the Roasting Oven with a cold plain shelf on the second set of runners from above. Turn the tin(s) at half-time. If the mixture is very deep and will take longer than 25-30 minutes to cook through, replace the now hot plain shelf with a fresh cold one (or improvise with a full-size hard anodised AGA baking tray or even a full-size AGA roasting tin. For a full explanation of all the different AGA baking techniques for a two-oven AGA, see the baking chapter in my, “Complete Book of AGA Know-How”, Absolute Press, available from your AGA shop or Distributor or online from www.agacookshop.co.uk .

A. Hi Barbie, Thank you for contacting AGA Cook Shop. Whilst we try to ensure our products are a good match to the AGA Cookers, there is variation in all AGA enamel shades and therefore we can not guarantee an exact match.

A. Dear Mike If you are baking the bread with the grid shelf on the bottom set of runners, this would indeed give you the problem you describe. Bake loaves of bread in tins on a grid shelf on the floor of the Roasting Oven. Bake for around 25-30 minutes, turning the tins around halfway through cooking. I hope that helps. Best wishes Richard Maggs The AGA Cookery Doctor

A. Dear Nicola, Thank you for your question. The 1lb AGA loaf tin will fit into the AGA baking tray. We would suggest using the AGA Cake Baker to successfully bake fruit cakes in a two oven AGA cooker - it creates a baking temperature within the roasting oven. http://www.agacookshop.co.uk/aga-cake-baker.html Kind regards AGA Cookshop

A. Dear Vicki, Thank you for your question. AGA cooking specialist Dawn Roads advises the following: "I find that the logo comes out better with a white bread dough and a slightly wetter mixture. Grease the AGA loaf tins with melted butter (I find animal fats work better than oil) with particular attention to the letters and let this solidify before putting in the dough. Please note the letters may not be as well distinguished in a seeded, brown loaf." Kind regards AGA Cookshop
