What exactly is *pre*heating?
Can someone explain how you *pre* heat an oven? You either heat it up or
not. You don't Pre-boil a pot of water, or pre-wash some vegetables. Pre-heat...sheesh, gimme a break. |

It works for most people. You turn the oven on and heat it up to the required cooking temperature so that is ready to throw in what ever you cooking. |

Do you > actually have trouble understanding it? Yes, I do have trouble understanding it. Once it's preheated, do I turn it off and then back on to the actual required temperature. Also, I wonder if it's really necessary to lather, rinse and then *repeat* when I shampoo my hair. Do you have any pearls of wisdom on this dilemma too? Thanks for your enlightening edification. You rool dude!! Oh, and is idiomatic like idiotic? Please clarify (not like the butter). |

Only by being perverse (which you can do with almost any English sentence) can you pretend to have trouble with it.

Dear Davlo: I see you are getting a nitwit answer(s), trying to make YOU look like the nitwit. However, in newer (I don't know how new) conventional/convection ovens, the answer is: "While in a preheat mode, the convection fan will reach it's target temperature faster." This is different than just pressing or turning a knob to a certain 'bake' temperature. HTH Dee Dee |

It usually happened in the morning. When I was a kid, we always had hot water heaters. We had an ice cream freezer, too, but it wasn't a freezer like a freezer, y'know? And it didn't freeze it, so we had to put it in the freezer afters anyway. So maybe that's why. |
