Speed Bake™ Cooking System - (some models)
Speed Bake™ Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly
and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast,
even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using
two racks at the same time.
Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Meats cooked with Speed Bake™ Cooking System are juicer. Poultry is crisp
on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry
brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster
and more evenly with Speed Bake™ Cooking System.
General Cooking Instructions:
1.
To convert baking times for normal recipes to Speed Bake times, start with
a 30% reduction in time and increase the time until the desired doneness is
obtained. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of
food.
2.
Preheating is not necessary when cooking with Speed Bake, except with
items such as cakes, cookies, biscuits, breads, etc.

the same time, place in
positions 2 and 5 for the
best results.
