• COOKING A COMPLETE MEAL AT ONCE
By using two levels of racks, it is easy to cook an entire meal at once. Keep in
mind that different foods and different weights of foods take different amounts
of time to cook. Think ahead. Put the food that takes the longest amount of
time to cook on the low rack.
Later on during the cooking process, put the other food on the high rack.
Now your complete meal of meat, potatoes and vegetables are all cooked
together and will be ready at the same time.
• PLACING FOODS FOR OPTIMUM COOKING
When placing several pieces of food on the wire rack, be sure to leave at least
1/2-inch between the food and the side of the glass bowl. This space allows
the air to flow freely through the oven.
Also avoid stacking food on food in order to cook more at one time.
The hot air must circulate freely in order to cook the food properly.
• KEEPING FOOD CRISP
After the food is cooked, turn the thermostat down, keeping the fan running.
Your food will stay hot and crisp.
• TO MAKE YOUR CLEAN-UP EVEN EASIER
Before cooking, spray the oven, including the racks and pans, with a non-stick
product first. Wiping away the grease and residue after cooking will be even
easier.
• ADAPTING RECIPES
As a rule of thumb, when using recipes intended for conventional ovens,
temperatures will remain the same but cooking times will be less.
The cooking times in the recipes in this book should be used as a guide. You
need to judge whether your piece of meat weighs less or more than that which
is used in the recipe and slightly adjust your cooking time. When working with
the FLAVOR WAVE OVEN ® TURBO for the first time, we suggest using a meat
thermometer. Watch the cooking progress through the glass bowl. After a
short time you will easily be able to adapt your favorite recipes for the
FLAVOR WAVE OVEN ® TURBO.
• PREHEAT YOUR OVEN (when it is recommended by the recipe book)
For optimum cooking, preheat your oven at 250ºC/480ºF for six (6) minutes
prior to cooking.
• COOKING TIME
Cooking times shown in this manual will vary depending on the volume, weight
and mass of the food or the desired crispness you want.
• CORN SHOULD NOT BE SHUCKED PRIOR TO COOKING.

I. INTRODUCTION
THE FLAVORWAVE OVEN
THE NEXT GENERATION IN COOKING
With the FLAVORWAVE OVEN ® TURBO you can prepare delicious, healthful
meals in less than half the time of traditional methods. What makes these
superior results possible is our revolutionary approach to certain time-honored
cooking methods.
Professional cooks have long known that they could improve upon traditional
oven cooking by using a fan to accelerate the circulation of the oven's hot air.
This traditional convection oven consists of a fan mounted on one side of a
metal box.
The FLAVORWAVE OVEN ® TURBO improves upon traditional convection ovens
in the following ways:
• The FLAVORWAVE OVEN ® TURBO bowl is made of glass, not metal, so that
you can clearly see what you are cooking from all sides.
• The FLAVORWAVE OVEN ® TURBO combines a circular bowl with a fan
mounted in the lid so that hot air currents move down over the food, around
the bowl's sides, and then back up to the fan. This creates a tornado-like flow
of constantly moving, super-heated air that cooks and browns food quickly
and thoroughly.
• The FLAVORWAVE OVEN ® TURBO uses cooking racks that allow you to cook
two levels of food at once. In addition, when meat, poultry, or fish is cooked
on the lower rack, fats and oils are blown away through the grating. You will
cook lighter, more nutritious meals.
