CONVERTING RECIPES FOR CONVECTION OVENS.
i
• Use the temperature and time from the original recipe as a guideline, checking 3/4 of the way to see if done. You can also just lower the baking temp. about 25 degrees.
• To prevent burns, position your racks before pre-heating the oven. Convection ovens heat quickly.
• Place food in the center of the oven, leaving a space between the oven walls and other pans.
• Most convection oven recipes do not require a cover on the
dish. If you are baking a long-baking recipe not designed for a convection oven and it requires it to be covered then lower the temp. 25-50 degrees and bake for approximately the same amount of time.
• Use the test your recipe gives you to test for
doneness and do not rely on the appearance. |
