Convection Roast
Convection Roast uses heat from the lower burner as well
as heat circulated by the convection fan. The Convection
Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat
and poultry. It is also suitable for roasting vegetables.
The benefits of Convection Roast include:
-- As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection
modes.
-- Rich, golden browning.
Tips:
• Preheating the oven is not necessary.
• Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.
• Check doneness early, since roasting time may
decrease. Refer to the Meat/Poultry cooking chart for
examples.
• Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
• Use a broil pan with a rack and grid or a shallow,
uncovered pan with a rack for roasting.
• Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal
termperature of the meat.
• If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet
done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat
to prevent overbrowning.
• Let meat stand covered with foil for 10 to 15 minutes
after removing it from the oven.
• Refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart for
recommended rack positions.
Broil
Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper burner.
The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts
of meat (1" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to
brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door
closed. The benefits of broiling include:
• Fast and efficient cooking.
• Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.
Tips:
• Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more
than 5 minutes.
• Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
• Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent
sticking.
• Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal
rack, for broiling.
• Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to
prevent smoking and spattering.
• Turn meats (other than fish) once during the
recommended cook time. Fish does not need to be
turned.
• When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass
ceramic dishes such as CorningWare ®.
• Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate
the high temperature.
• For broil times, refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking
Chart.
Proof
Proof is using the lower burner to maintain a low
temperature to proof bread, pizza dough or other yeast
doughs.
• No preheat is necessary.
• Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
• The Proof Dough mode temperature range is 85° F to
125° F.
• The default temperature in the Proof Dough mode is
100° F.
• Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that
accommodates the size of the container.
• Keep the oven door closed and use the oven light to
check the rising of the dough.
Warm
Warm is cooking with dry, heated air. The lower burner
cycles to maintain the oven temperature.
• Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until
ready to serve for up to one hour.
• Warm mode temperatures are 150° F to 225° F.
• The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170° F.
• Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with
a lid or aluminum foil.
9 CAUTION
When using Warm mode, follow these guidelines:
• Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.
• Be sure to maintain proper food temperature.
The USDA recommends holding hot food at
140° F or warmer.
• DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.
