Cooking Guide (continued)
CONVECTION
Cooking with convection is the traditional and well known method of cooking food in a
traditional oven with hot air.
The heating element and the fan position is at the back-wall, so that the hot air is
circulating.
Cookware for convection cooking:
All conventional ovenproof cookware, baking tins and sheets – anything you would
normally use in a traditional convection oven – can be used.
Food suitable for convection cooking:
All biscuits, individual scones, rolls and cakes should be made by this mode as well as
rich fruit cakes, choux pastry and soufflés.
MICROWAVES +CONVECTION
This mode combines the microwave energy with the hot air and is therefore reducing
the cooking time while giving the food a brown and crispy surface.
Cooking with convection is the traditional and well known method of cooking food in an
oven with hot air circulated by a fan on the back-wall.
Cookware for cooking with microwaves + convection:
Should be able to let the microwaves pass through. Should be ovenproof (like glass,
pottery or china without metal trims); similar to the cookware described under MW +
Grill.
Food suitable for microwave + convection cooking:
All kinds of meats and poultry as well as casseroles and gratin dishes, sponge cakes
and light fruit cakes, pies and crumbles, roast vegetables, scones and breads.
