Adapting Recipes For Convection Baking
As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for convection baking. For more specific instructions, follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook.
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.
Check foods for doneness at the minimum suggested cooking time.
Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
For more information on adapting recipes, see the Convection Cookbook.
Multi-Shelf Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on two or three shelves at a time.
When baking on 3 shelves, divide the oven into thirds by placing the offset shelf in the third
(C)shelf position and straight shelves in first
(A)and fourth (D) shelf position.
Offset Shelf
For
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that you pull the shelf out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by holdin& the sides of it. The offset shelf is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all the way out.
NOTE: When convection baking with only one shelf,
follow the shelf positions recommended in Oven— Shelves in the Regular Baking section.
How to Set Your Oven for Convection Baking
Your double oven has controls for the upper oven and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel are for the lower oven. The TIMER ON/OFF, COOK TIME, STOP TIME, INCREASE and DECREASE pads can be used for either oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on.
