Abstract

A baking pan kit includes a lower pan portion and an upper pan portion removably connected to the lower pan portion via a effectively steam-proof seal, the upper pan portion having an upper surface provided with an opening. The upper surface has an area surrounding the opening which is continuous and free of perforations. A plurality of panels are alternatively connectable to the upper pan portion over the opening. At least one of the panels is provided with a plurality of perforations disposed in a predetermined array, the one panel being connectable to the upper pan portion in an essentially steam-proof seal to define, with the lower pan portion and the upper pan portion, a substantially sealed chamber with the perforations communicating with the chamber.
