What Is the True Use of This Drawer If It Isn’t for Storage?

The bottom drawer of many ovens is often mistaken for a storage space, but it’s actually intended as a warming drawer. Its

primary function is to keep prepared food warm without overcooking it, making it useful for keeping dishes warm while you

finish cooking or for resting baked goods. Here’s how to use it properly: Preheat the drawer if needed, and consult the manual

for specific instructions. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even heat distribution. Use oven-safe containers and avoid plastic to

prevent melting. Cover food with foil to maintain moisture. Avoid using the drawer for storage, as heat from the oven can

damage items like plastic containers, creating fire risks. Next time, remember to use it as a warming drawer,

enhancing your cooking experience
