When using your oven, check cooking progress by looking through the window. Opening the oven door for even a few seconds lowers the temperature inside by as much as 25℉F.
Turn off the oven early. Your oven’s insulation will allow your food to continue cooking with the remaining heat.
Lower your thermostat. Keeping your thermostat at 66 to 68 degrees keeps guests comfortable and save 1 to 3% on heating costs for every 1 degree you lower it.
