The KitchenAid® Microwave Hood Combination Model KMHC319L is a versatile kitchen appliance designed to offer a range of cooking functions, including convection baking, convection roasting, air frying, grilling, steaming, simmering, popcorn making, defrosting, softening, melting, cooking, and reheating. This appliance integrates multiple cooking methods into a single unit, making it a comprehensive tool for various culinary tasks.
The Convect Bake function is ideal for preparing baked goods, frozen foods, and casseroles. It utilizes a short convection rack and a microwave-safe, ovenproof baking dish. Users are advised to consult the "Accessory Configurations" in the User Guide for proper setup. A key safety note is that the microwave oven cavity, inside of the door, the convection rack, and the baking dish will become hot, requiring the use of oven mitts for removal and handling.
For manual convection baking, users can set the temperature between 250°F (121°C) and 450°F (232°C), with a default of 325°F (163°C). The cooking time can be set for up to 4 hours. The appliance requires preheating, which can be initiated by touching the Start keypad. Users have the option to skip preheating. After preheat, the baking dish with food is placed on the convection rack, and baking begins.
The Convect Bake function also includes specific settings for various food items:
Similar to Convect Bake, the Convect Roast function uses a short convection rack and an ovenproof microwave-safe dish or plate. The "Accessory Configurations" in the User Guide should be consulted. The oven cavity, door interior, convection rack, and crisp pan will be hot, necessitating oven mitts for handling.
For manual convection roasting, users can decrease the cooking time by 10%-20% compared to traditional recipes. Microwave power levels can be adjusted: 30% for large meats and casseroles, and 10%-20% for thin cuts of meat. The convection rack is placed on the turntable, and the default temperature is 325°F (163°C), adjustable from 250°F (121°C) to 450°F (232°C). Time can be set up to 4 hours, and power level from 10% to 30% (default 30%). Preheating is required, with the option to skip it. After preheat, the food is placed on the turntable, and roasting begins.
Specific Convect Roast settings include:
The Air Fry function uses an air fry basket and requires users to consult "Accessory Configurations" in the User Guide. After selecting the Air Fry button, users enter weight or servings, confirm with "select," insert the basket and food, and press "Start." The appliance will prompt to turn/flip food during cooking.
Important notes for Air Fry:
The Manual Air Fry function combines forced air with grill to achieve a deep-fried effect without submerging food in oil. Auto recipes are recommended, but manual function is available. The default temperature is 425°F (218°C), adjustable from 400°F (204°C) to 450°F (232°C). Time can be set up to 99:59, with a default of 30 minutes. Users can touch "Start" to cook and will be prompted to turn food if needed.
Temperature levels and suggested uses for Air Fry:
Specific Air Fry settings include:
The Grill function uses a tall grill rack and an ovenproof microwave-safe dish or plate. "Accessory Configurations" in the User Guide should be consulted. Users will be prompted to turn over food. Safety note: The microwave oven cavity, door interior, air fry basket, and glass tray will be hot. Oven mitts are required for handling and cleaning.
Manual Grill: Users can set time in minutes and seconds (up to 99:59) and power level from 10% to 100% (default 100%).
Specific Grill settings include:
This function uses a provided steamer vessel. The sensor detects when liquid boils, then begins the Steam or Simmer countdown. Users should not remove the lid during the process, as steam disruption can affect sensor readings.
Specific Steam/Simmer settings include:
Place 1 cup (250 mL/each) of water on the turntable, then touch "Start." The cycle takes 10 minutes. Keep the door closed until the cycle ends. Wipe the cavity with a damp sponge or paper towel.
Senses 3.0-3.5 oz (85-99 g) size bags. Place bag on turntable. Listen for popping to slow to 1 pop every 1 or 2 seconds, then stop the cycle.
This appliance is designed for ease of use with clear menu programs and display prompts. Safety is emphasized with warnings about hot surfaces and the need for oven mitts. Maintenance is simplified with dishwasher-safe components like the air fry basket. The comprehensive range of functions makes it a versatile addition to any kitchen, catering to diverse cooking needs from baking and roasting to steaming and air frying.
