Helpful Hints for Convection and Automatic Mix Cooking
Your Sharp Convection Microwave Oven can cook any food perfectly because of the number of ways it can cook: microwave only, automatic mix, convection only or broil. The cookbook that comes with your oven has excellent instructions, guidelines, hints, charts and recipes to help you get the best use of your oven,. Consult it often until you are familiar with it. This Operation Manual tells you how to program the oven..
The oven cannot be used without the turntable in place.. Never restrict the movement of the turntable.
Convection Cooking:
1.When preheating, the turntable can be left in or removed, When using the baking rack for2 shelf cooking in a preheated oven, it is easier to remove the tumtable for preheat.
Place baking rack on turntable along with foods, and when preheat is over, open oven door and quickly
place turntable, baking rack and foods to be baked inside..
2.Do not cover turntable, broiling trivet or baking rack with aluminum foil. It interferes with air flow that cooks food.
3.Round pizza pans are excelfent cooking utensils for many
4.Using a preheated broiling rack can give a grilled appearance to steaks, hot dogs etc..
Automatic Mix Cooking:
1_ Meats are best when roasted directly on the broiling trivet° A dish can be placed below the meat if gravy is to be made from the drippings..
2Less tender cuts of meat can be roasted and
tenderized using oven cooking bags_
3.When baking, check for doneness after time has elapsed. If not completely done, let stand in oven a few minutes to complete cooking.
NOTE:
During mix baking some metal baking utensils may cause arcing when they come in contact with the turntable, oven walls or accessory racks., Arcing is a
discharge of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal.
If arcing occurs, place a heat resistant dish (Pyrex ® pie plate, glass pizza dish or dinner plate) between the pan and the turntable or trivet, if arcing occurs with other metal baking utensils, discontinue their use for mix cooking
