Hi! I'm Jennifer Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to make
a green bean casserole as part of your delicious Thanksgiving day dinner. At some point while
you're making your green bean casserole while you're assembling it, you want to preheat
the oven. Now, depending on your oven, you might want to preheat it closer to when you're
finished or earlier on. If it's an older oven, you're going to want to have the oven turned
on probably right from the start. It also depends on how long it takes for you to assemble
a green bean casserole. Presumably, if you're not doing an instructional video, it's not
going to take you that long. You want to preheat the oven to either 325 or 350 depending on
how hot your oven runs. Now, because this a casserole, we have a lot of room for air.
You can certainly open up the oven door and check it while it's partially cooked to make
sure you're not getting too brown on top or it's not heating evenly. The important thing
to remember is that you're going to want to have the oven hot when it's time to put the
casserole in. You don't want it to still be heating up because then you're not going to
get an even consistent heating through the casserole.
