the Various Oven Modes (Continued)
Your oven offers three convection cooking
modes:
Pure Convection
Convection bake
Convection roast
As a general rule, in the convection modes time is about
25% shorter. Set the timer 15 minutes before the shortest
stated time and add more time if necessary.
When cooking in Pure Convection and
convection bake modes...
Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may
require adjustment and testing when converting from
standard to convection baking. If you are unsure how to
convert a recipe, begin by preparing the recipe using the
standard bake settings.
If the food is not cooked to your satisfaction during this
first convection trial, adjust one recipe variable at a time
(such as cooking time, rack position, or temperature) and
repeat the convection test. If necessary, continue adjust-
ing one recipe variable at a time until you get satisfactory
results.
Pure Convection _l'
The uniform air circulation provided by Pure Convection
allows you to use more oven capacity at once. Use this
mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, roast-
ing, and preparation of complete meals. Many foods,
such as pizzas, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls and
frozen convenience foods can be successfully prepared on
two or three racks at a time. Pure Convection is also good
for whole roasted duck, lamb shoulder and short leg of
lamb.
AIR FLOW
Multiple Rack Baking in PureConvection
Mode
Typically, when baking on two racks, use rack posi-
tions #1 and #3 or #2 and #4 (counting from the
bottom up) for best results. When cooking a full meal,
use rack positions #1, #3 and #5 for best results.
When adapting a single rack recipe to multiple rack
baking, it may be necessary to add to the baking time
due to the extra bulk of the food in the oven.
Convection Bake ssss
Use this mode for single rack baking. The combination of
the convection fan and bottom heat source is best for fruit
crisps, custard pies, double-crusted fruit pies, quiches,
yeast breads in a loaf pan and popovers. Also, items
baked in a deep ceramic dish or earthenware clay pots are
best in this mode. Most of these items cook in a deep pan
and require browning on the top and bottom.
