How the Speed Bake™ Cooking System works (some models)
Benefits of Speed Bake™
Cooking System:
—Foods cook up to 25 to
30% faster, saving time
and energy.
—Multiple rack baking.
—No special pans or
bakeware needed.
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 (See Fig. 1).
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:
For Baking:
1.
For optimum cooking results it is recommended to preheat the oven when baking foods
such as cookies, biscuits and breads.
2.
Reduce oven temperature 25° F from recipe’s recommended oven temperature. Follow
the remainder of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum recommended cook time.
Note:
Layer cakes will have better results using the normal Bake feature.
For Roasting:
1.
Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods with
Speed Bake™ Cooking System.
2.
Since
Speed Bake
cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe.
Increase the time until the desired doneness is obtained.
Note:
Cook time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.
To Set Speed Bake™ Cooking System:
1.
Program the oven as you normally would to bake.
Speed Bake
may be used with Bake, Timed Bake and Delayed
Time Bake features.
2.
The oven icon with a fan will appear in the display when the Speed Bake mode is active. The fan stays on when the
oven door is closed and shuts off while the oven door is opened. The fan will continue to operate until cooking is
complete.
3.
To cancel
Speed Bake
, press on the oven control as you would to stop any baking function.
