Convection Bake - GE JCBP40 Manuel Du Propriétaire

Using the convection oven.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of
time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.
In a convection oven, a fan
circulates hot air over, under and
around the food. This circulating
hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven cavity. As a
result, foods are evenly cooked and
browned–often in less time than
with regular heat.

To help you understand the difference
between convection bake and roast and
traditional bake and roast, here are some
general guidelines.

Convection Bake

■
Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on multiple racks.
■
Good for large quantities of baked foods.
■
Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies,
cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food
cake and bread.
Heat comes from the heating element in
the rear of the oven. The convection fan
circulates the heated air evenly over and
around the food. Preheating is not
necessary with foods having a bake time
of over 15 minutes.
Adapting Recipes...
You can use your favorite recipes in
the convection oven.
When baking, reduce baking
temperature by 14°C (25°F), or use
the Convection Conversion feature.
No need to preheat when cooking
longer than 15 minutes.
Convection Roast
■
Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Heat comes from the top heating
element. The convection fan circulates
the heated air evenly over and around
the food. Meat and poultry are browned
on all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie. The heated air seals in juices
quickly for a moist and tender product
while, at the same time, creating a rich
golden brown exterior.
When you are convection roasting, it is
important that you use a broiler pan and
grid designed for broiling for best
convection roasting results. The pan is
used to catch grease spills and the grid is
used to prevent grease spatters.
■
Use pan size recommended.
■
Some package instructions for frozen
casseroles or main dishes have been
developed using commercial convection ovens.
For best results in this oven, preheat the oven
and use the temperature on the package.
