About microwave/convection cooking.

How It Works

Microwave cooking uses very short, high frequency radio waves. The movement of the microwaves through the food creates heat and cooks most foods faster than regular methods. Microwave cooking heats the food, not the cookware or the interior of the oven.

Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air around the food. It creates even browning and sealed-in flavor by the motion of hot air over the food surfaces.

Using a combination of microwave and convection cooking is also an option.

You can cook by time or by temperature. When cooking by temperature, the temperature probe monitors the internal temperature of the food to let you know when it is ready.
