The Top Oven

Dehydrate: Considered the original form of preservation, dehydrating food removes the product’s natural moisture by slowly drying it with a low heat. Manually, food can be dehydrated by placing thin slices on racks and allowing them to dry assisted only by sun or air. To shorten the dehydrating process, the TurboChef oven utilizes low temperature air moving at higher speeds.

This mode is ideal for products like banana chips and other dried fruits, as well as dried meats, like beef jerky. Sheet pans, TurboChef teflon screens, and pizza pans (with or without holes) are all recommended for use with this mode.

Favorites: The Favorites mode is a wonderful tool that allows you to store and easily recall over 9,000 of your favorite recipes. This mode truly allows you to cook any recipe – whether

it is a perfect match to a preprogrammed one or not – quickly and easily. In addition to any settings you save, the settings for your last ten cooks are always saved in this mode. To learn more about the Favorites mode, see pages 9, and 16-19.

Toast: Toasting browns and crisps foods like bread, bagels and tortillas. Using high heat and high speed air, the Toast Mode can enhance flavor and melt cheese.

For best results, place food directly on the oven rack. For products that may run over, like filled pastries, use a metal sheet pan.
