Cooking in the Oven
Traditional cooking is made by natural
convection; the heated air circulates on the
principle of ascending and descending draughts.
It is necessary to pre-heat the oven.
All cookers vary and it is important to be
aware of the approximate cooking
temperatures before you use the cooker.
