Broiler pan
Convection Roast
Good for large tender cuts of meat,
uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated air
evenly over and around the food. Heat and
poultry are browned on all sides as if they
were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will be
circulated over, under and around the food
being roasted. The heated air seals in juices
quickly for a moist and tender product while,
at the same time, creating a rich golden brown
exterior.
When you are convection roasting it is
important that you use the broiler pan and grid
for best convection roasting results. The pan is
used to catch grease spills and the grid is used
to prevent grease spatters.
When baking cookies,you will
get the best results ifyou use
a flat cookie sheet instead of a
pan with low sides.
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check
to see if your cookware leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. If you are baking with
several pans, leave space between them. Also,
be sure the puns do not touch each other or
the walls of the oven.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers
that are recommended for use in regular
ovens can be used in convection ovens.
Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to
temperatures of 400°Fcan also be used.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your
convection oven. However, metal pans
heat the fastest and are recommended for
convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
_+ G lassor ceramic pans cook more slowly.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan
with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.
