Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before nsing your convection oven, check
to see ifyour cookicare leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. Ifyou are baking
with several pans, leave space between
them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch
each other orthe wallsof the oven.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic
containers that are recommended
for nse in regular ovens ean be nsed
in convection ovens. Plastic cookware
that is heat-resistant to temperatures
of 400°F. can also be used, when oven
is below 400° F.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your
convection oven. However, metal pans
heat the fastest and are recommended
for convection baking.

When baking cookies, you will get the
best results if you use a flat cookie sheet
instead of a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken,
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot
circulate well around food in a pan with
high sides.

Multi-Sheff Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be
baked with excellent results using
multiple shelves.
Multi-shelf baking may increase cook
times slightly for some foods but the
overall result is time saved. Cookies,
muffins, biscuits, and other quick
breads give very good results with
multi-shelf baking.
When baking larger foods on 3 shelves,
place one shelf in the 2nd (A) position,
one on the 4th (C) posidon and the third
shelf in the 6th (E) position.
When baking cookies, place the
shelves in the 4th (C), 5th (D), and
6th (E) positions.
