French adverb meaning "baked". To be honest, I think it's just a complete error, but I've decided to list it here. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
- "lasagne au four" == "lasagna al forno" == "baked lasagna" == oven-cooked lasagna
- "pâtes au four" == "pasta al forno" == "baked pasta" == oven-cooked pasta
- "pomme de terre au four" == "baked potato" == oven-cooked potato
- "dinde au four" == "roast turkey"
- I don't know, I've seen it used that way... 'cooked in an oven' as equivalent to 'baked'.

Where's the error? Do you mean it should be Adjective? Anyway, this is very usual, and I think this is a set phrase for this cooking mode. Lmaltier 20:49, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, this means cooked in an oven (rather than on a hob or grill). So adjective sense is (deprecated template usage) baked, adverb sense is in the (deprecated template usage) oven. SemperBlotto 08:21, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- It's perhaps SoP, but I don't plan on nominating at RFD as it's too marginal. Striking, clear widespread use. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:56, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
