COOKING TIPS
This is meant as a guide. As product starting temperature, weight, density, thickness, moisture
and fat content are critical when using a high speed oven, changes to the suggested cook settings may
be needed. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide or Owner’s Manual for programming Procedure.
Tips for
High Speed Combination Oven Operation
Microwave settings
•
11 different power levels (0% lowest to 100% highest) control intensity of
microwave.
•
Microwave helps cooking the food and increases the internal food temperature.
•
Food containing high water, fat and salt content raises its temperature faster with
high microwave power level.
•
It’s recommended to decrease microwave power level when product is thick and
takes longer time to cook in order to avoid drying out the edges of food.
Fan settings
•
11 different speed settings (0%-slowest to 100%-fastest) control forced air.
•
Fan is a major source of food toasting, crisping and browning, especially for short
cook times. Aids in the quick heating of food.
•
If no browning is desired, 0% Fan can be chosen.
•
Reduce fan speed for more evenly controlled browning, particularly when food is
cooked for long period of time.
Infra Red (IR) settings
•
11 different power levels (0%-lowest to 100%–highest) control radiant heat.
•
Helps improving crispness and browning on the bottom of foods and overall
browning
.
Stage cooking
•
Enables to use up to four different cooking cycles or stages to be used
consecutively without repeated input from the user.
•
Aids in retaining the quality of frozen and delicate foods.
•
The three cooking technologies Microwave, Fan and IR can vary through the
cooking process depending if more or less is needed at the beginning or end of
cooking stages.
•
Example: Roasted red potatoes
Oven Temp 520°F
Stage
1
2 Total cook time: 4:00
Time 3:00 1:00
Microwave 100% 100% (Only 25% of the cook time uses higher
Fan 10% 100% fan power to avoid the potatoes from
IR 100% 100% burning)
Oven Temperature
•
Oven can be preheated between 200-520°F (95-270°C)
•
Use only one temperature for all your menu items to avoid any cooking
inconsistency.
