is this for baking in ovens or merely for keeping foods warm, after being baked in other dishes

Only for keeping food hot after being cooked - put HOT water in dish to warm it up, then put cooked, hot food into it. I use it to take casseroles, veg., meat and gravy, etc. to church functions, shut-ins, people who have had surgery, etc. Very good to have. keeps food very hot for a couple hours; warm for 3-4 hours.

I would not bake these in the oven as the outer part is made of plastic. I only use them to warm foods.

I believe this item is designed to only go in the oven on a baking sheet. I think direct heat on a burner may melt it.

I've only used it to keep spills and drips localized. Don't put it on bottom of oven, but instead put it on a rack (even with a pan sitting on it). The silicon baking mats (Silpat is one brand, etc.)used as baking liners are softer. Hope this helps!

No. This is to use in the oven inside a baking sheet. It stops your food from sitting in grease while it cook. It's hard to clean after.

It sure can. I use mine all the time for so many things. I have used it to put things on that I want to have ventilation all around to cook quicker and not lose my crisp crust due to steaming where the food hits the pan. I use it over a 1/2 bake rimmed sheet. I like it for things coated similar to a shake and bake pork chop, etc. keeping things warm in a warm oven after I have cooked it another way like fried chicken done in batches. I think you will really like it. My only regret is that I didn't get 2 earlier.

Excellent question and one I thought about before purchase and was prepared to place some ceramic tiles to absorb excess heat. But, it is not needed. The insulation is good and I can actually set my hand upon the top when it has been baking at 350 for 20 minutes. It continues to gain some heat, but nowheres near what the consumer countertop ovens I had before radiated. I think that is because the consumer models have NO insulation. I absolutely love the oven and it bakes better than my expensive double convection stainless Thermador. Hope that helps in your decision process. I don't see how you can go wrong if you get one of the ovens as pictured in the photo as I did. Good things have a way of changing locations of manufacturing if you know what I mean. ;)

Transfer food from pot to dish it is served in. This warmer keeps food warm but does not continue to cook it. A wonderful asset for keeping food warm and tasty.

You definitely should NOT put this in the oven This basket is used purely for the proofing stage, not the cooking stage. After the bread is proofed, you turn the bread out on or into whatever cooking vessel you want to use for baking This basket would definitely quickly get destroyed in the oven

Yes. It 's great to heat up small snacks, good advantage to avoid utilizing the regular oven.

The pan works perfect with breads, because the perforation give the dough a nice crunch, but leaving the inside nice and soft that is mainly the purpose of this pan. i don't think it will make a difference if the oven is pre-heated or not the pan will work the same. Now the for any bake good before putting it in the oven you will always need to pre-heat unless you are only heating up something.

Yes. Any oven. Some ovens have the heat come through the bottom so I'd probably just recommend cutting out the area that the heat actually comes through or putting it on the first rack in the oven. I have 3 racks in my oven so just placed it on the lowest rack and it works great. Saved me a few times catching sweet potato spill overs

Halachically speaking, it is used to keep food warm, it is not for cooking on. The food is prepared prior to the Sabbath and left on the warming tray to keep it warm.

Both. For that matter one could probably use it in an oven. The purpose of the device is to hold the chicken so I believe it's irrelevant what the heat source is.

I have not used it as an oven liner but I don't see any problem whatsoever with that idea because you can use this product at such high temperature. However, why use such an expensive product for a problem that can be solved with a piece of heavy duty foil you can throw out and not have to clean and scrub should something drops on it? That's what I have always used on the bottom of my two ovens :-)

I just use the product for keeping casseroles warm so I have not tried to use it for any other use. It works very well for what It is intended for and this is the second one I have had.

Cooling racks are not intended to be used in ovens or on cooking surfaces. Cooling racks are for cooling baked products such as cookies, yeast rolls, muffins, etc. so that air can circulate around them as they cool and prevent condensation accumulating which would make them soggy. Baker's Secret used to be an EKCO product. You might check online for more information about using this item in the oven or on cooking surfaces.
