GUIDE TO TIMES AND TEMPERATURES

As a guide, set oven temperatures 25°F to 75°F lower than called for in recipes for non-convection ovens, (i.e., range or deck ovens).

Time and temperature will vary depending upon load, mix, size, portion, initial temperature of food, and other factors. Use the following chart as a starting point to develop your own cooking techniques. Rack loading and position may affect results. Experimentation may be necessary to suit individual requirements.
