Countertop Convection Oven Cooking Tips

Countertop Convection Oven Tips These are some of my tips to use when cooking with your Round Convection Oven. When you are cooking, the oven produces a circle of hot moving air, which cooks the food evenly so you can make delicious food whilst preserving the natural flavor and nutrition. Do not put the oven lid directly on the countertop or table or cooking surface, otherwise the cooking surface may leave a spot. Use the high rack to bring food closer to heat source for additional crispness and browning of food or to cook food to be well done.  The Convection Oven does cook from raw or frozen food, however you should always check before serving.  Some useful Countertop Convection Oven Tips will help you make your cooking even better. Once food has finished cooking, remove the top lid from the glass bowl, otherwise, the steam will cause the food to become soggy instead of crispy. COOKING TIPS Broiling and Grilling Place food directly on the low rack without covering with the high rack when broiling/grilling. If the meat or fish is very lean, brush the rack with cooking oil before arranging the food on the rack.  Each oven is different and  your personal preferences also decide cooking times. This oven has brought an end to the traditional way of cooking. Spray or brush vegetable oil onto the rack to assist with easier removal of cooked food. Preheating is not necessary for baking in a convection oven. If oil is used , only a thin layer of oil should be evenly applied to the food with the aid of a pastry brush or a oil spray bottle.  You can also brush it over the food as it cooks.   OVEN TIPS Keeping the food approximately 1″ to 1. Always ensure food is fully cooked inside before serving. Always use wooden, heat proof plastic and nylon utensil while cooking. Disposable aluminum foil mini-loaf pans work well as they allow for faster and even cooking.  It will catch all the drips and oil and make cleaning your oven even easier.  I always cook lamb more then ‘recommended’.
