CONVECTION
COOKINGWITHCONVECTION
There are many advantages to cooking with
convection.Intheconvectionsystem,afaninthe
backoftheovenmovesheatedairevenlyaround
the oven. The moving air provides even heat so
foods can be placed on any rack level with
consistent results and without having to rotate
the
pans. Convection also enables cooking
simultaneouslyonmultipleracks.
Low, shallow bake ware should be used with
convectioncooking.This allows theheatedairto
properly move around the food. Pans with high
sidesorpansthatarecov eredarenotsuitablefor
convection cooking because high sides or lids
prohibitthewarmairfromcirculatingaroundthe
food.
Any food cooked uncovered will brown evenly
and form a nice crust. Foods in covered dishes
(casseroles, pot roast) or delicate custards are
notsuitableforconvectioncooking.
