ENGLISH

CONVECTION

Cooking with convection is the traditional and well known method of cooking food in a traditional oven with hot air.

The heating element and the fan position is at the back-wall, so that the hot air is circulating.

Cookware for convection cooking:

All conventional ovenproof cookware, baking tins and sheets – anything you would normally use in a traditional convection oven – can be used.

Food suitable for convection cooking:

All biscuits, individual scones, rolls and cakes should be made by this mode as well as rich fruit cakes, choux pastry and soufflés.

MICROWAVES + CONVECTION

This mode combines the microwave energy with the hot air and is therefore reducing the cooking time while giving the food a brown and crispy surface. Cooking with convection is the traditional and well known method of cooking food in an oven with hot air circulated by a fan on the back-wall.

Cookware for cooking with microwaves + convection:

Should be able to let the microwaves pass through. Should be ovenproof (like glass, pottery or china without metal trims); similar to the cookware described under MW + Grill.

Food suitable for microwave + convection cooking:

All kinds of meats and poultry as well as casseroles and gratin dishes, sponge cakes and light fruit cakes, pies and crumbles, roast vegetables, scones and breads.
