Tips for cooking

The cooking degree depends on the type of toaster you are using, so please adjust the temperature as you check the conditions. This time it's baked at 1000W 250°C (480°F). If you boil the milk, it may separate, so please be careful with the heat level. Use the time indicated on the package as a guide for the boiling time.
