CONVECTION

Convection Cooking is a technology used to cook foods more efficiently. Convection cooking uses a special heating element and fan to raise the temperature of the air inside the microwave oven, circulating the uniform heated air throughout the oven. The

air moves over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors with rich, moist interiors. Most foods will cook faster and better with Convection Cooking than conventional cooking methods.
