“Recipes instruct us to preheat our ovens even though it’s unnecessary and a waste of energy.” Instead: “Depending on your oven, add six to eight minutes to the stated cooking time.” • Minor benefit of preheating: cooking times that work for all ovens • Only food that requires preheating: home-made pizza • “[…] you can save a bit more energy by switching off the oven five to ten minutes before time’s up, and letting food finish cooking in residual heat.” https://www.orlandomurrin.com/post/why-you-don-t-need-to-preheat-your-oven
