Convection Roast ton some models)
Good for large tender cuts of meat,
uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food. Meat
and poultry are browned on all sides as if
they were cooked on a rotisserie.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 ore convection roosting, it is
important that you use a broiler pan and
grid for best convection roosting results.
The pan is used to catch grease spills
and the grid is used to prevent grease
spotters.

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 ore baking
with several pans, leave space between
them. Also, be sure the pans 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
baking can also be used for convection
baking but should not be used at
temperatures higher than the temperature
recommended by the cookware
manufacturer. Plasticcookware 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 ore recommended
for convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will
bake foster than shing pans.
Gloss or ceramic pans cook more slowlg.
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.
