Cookware for Convection Cooking
Any cookware safe for use in a conventional oven will
work in a convection oven. But for best results, keep
the following in mind.
•
Make sure pans don’t touch the oven walls when
centered on the racks. Use cookware that leaves
room for air circulation in the oven for best results
when convection cooking.
•
Leave space between pans. Make sure pans don't
touch each other or the oven walls.
•
Do not use pans with high sides. Use flat pans with
no sides for cookies or biscuits. Use a pan with low
sides for oven-baked chicken.
•
Metal pans heat the fastest. Heat-resistant paper
and plastic containers that are recommended for
use in regular ovens can be used in convection
ovens. Glass and ceramic pans can also be used.
However, metal pans heat the fastest and are
recommended for convection cooking.
•
Food cooked on pans with dark or matte finishes
cooks faster than food on pans with shiny finishes.
•
Use the pan size recommended in the recipe.
NOTE
•
Some frozen foods have been developed to use
commercial convection ovens. For best results
in this oven, preheat the oven and use the
temperature recommended on the packaging.
•
If a food manufacturer gives specific convection
cooking instructions, remember that convection
autoconversion will reduce the set temperature
by 25 °F (14 °C). If auto-conversion is enabled,
add 25 °F (14 °C) when setting the temperature
to get a resulting converted temperature which
matches the recipe.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast feature is designed to give
optimum roasting performance. Convection Roast
combines cooking with the convection fan to roast
meats and poultry. The heated air circulates around
the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Food cooked in this manner is crispy brown on the
outside while staying moist on the inside.
