13 COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS Material Broiling / Roasting Recommendation Broiling pan For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with an insert designed to drain the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. Convection Cooking Convection attributes Convection cooking uses a fan to circulate hot air around the oven and food. It browns food more evenly and reduces hot spots in the oven. Convection saves time when using multiple racks or cooking several food items at once. Convection bake Reduce cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) from the recipe unless the recipe is written for convection baking. Preheat the oven for best results. Convection roast Convection roast is best for meats and does not require preheating for most meats and poultry. Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended. Carefully follow your recipe's temperature and time recommendations, adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time. Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained. Use the meat probe included with your appliance. Meat probes are also available from most grocery and home goods stores. Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven. Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly. When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.
