I have a question...I, unfortunately, cannot turn my oven temp up and down on yom tov because it is a digital one. So I was wondering, if I leave the oven on at 250 for all of yom tov, and a recipe says it should be baked at 350 degrees for 20 mins, could I instead put the casserole in at 250 degrees for, say, 35 or 40 minutes instead? Does that work?

Sorry I can't be more helpful but the answer is "Sometimes". It depends on the recipe and what you want it to do in the oven. Something that needs to rise might be a problem, fish or meat depends on the method and sauce but usually they can work. What kind of casserole are you talking about?

I just polled my gourmet cook friends and sisters. Their verdict - yes - but on the things I asked. Such as - spare ribs and minute steaks - supposed to be baked at 350 for 1 1/2 hours, they all say they leave the oven at 225, slide the meat (FROZEN) into the oven at 7 am and it is ready for the seudah. A roast goes in the night before and cooks for 12-15 hours! Don't know how you would convert the casserole time wise, perhaps someone else here can chime in!

It worked for my chicken on Rosh Hashona. It baked for only a few minutes before I had to lower the oven for Yom Tov. Spent the next few hours on 235. Came out delicious. I think I'll do it again for Sukkos.

That's how I make my "chulent" in the oven when YT comes out like this. I guess that's the idea of overnight potato kugel!

I was running low on cake on Simchas Torah, with my oven set at 235. Thinking of you all on this thread, I quickly mixed together a cake batter, and put it into the oven, not knowing how long it would need to bake, or if would even turn out edible. When I came home 1.5 hours later, the house smelled delicious  , but the cake wasn't ready. It was ready after almost 3 hours, just in time for dessert!

In other words, if you get food in the oven in the AM, it's OK for the daytime seudah, but no way would it be ready for the night time.
