May food placed in an oven before Shabbat (Ashkenazi oven practice) include items that cook quickly, like pastries and legumes?
Synopsis
The Magen Avraham and Aruch HaShulchan discuss whether pastries, legumes, and potatoes may be placed in the oven before Shabbat. Raw meat does not require clay sealing. Quick-cooking items require either clay sealing (Mechaber's view) or ash-covered coals (Rema's view), and must reach ma'achal ben Derusai before Shabbat in places without the sealing custom.
