Cooking by Temperature

Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for many foods.

“TEMP COOK/HOLD” takes the guesswork out of cooking because the oven automatically switches

to “Hold” setting after reaching the preset food temperature and maintains that temperature for up to one hour or until you touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.
