CONVECTION COOKING GUIDE
1.
Always use the metal rack when convection baking.
Place food directly on rack or place in metal tray
and then place tray on rack.
(See page 9.)
2. Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly. For most
convection baking, light, shiny finishes give best
results because they prevent overbrowning in the
time it takes to cook the center areas. Pans with dull
(satin-finish) bottoms are recommended for cake
pans and pie pans for best bottom browning.
3. Dark or non-shiny finishes, and glass, absorb heat
which may result in dry, crisp crusts.
4. Preheating the oven is recommended when baking
foods by convection.
5. To prevent uneven heating and save energy, open
the oven door to check food as little as possible.
