Written by: Head Chef on March 12, 2008

Knowing how to preheat the oven is an essential skill for any chef to know. Here’s how you can teach your budding chef:

  1. Explain to your kids or students that pre means before and that heat is a word for a warm or hot temperature. So to preheat and oven means to heat the oven to the right temperature before we cook something.
  2. Show the childred how to read the recipe to determine the correct temperature for a recipe.
  3. Teach them how to set your oven to that temperature.
  4. Prepare the recipe.
