COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS
Food placement Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation.
Broiling / Roasting
Broiling pan For best results when broiling, use a broil p
an with a broil p
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.
If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied, they may be purchased
fro
m www.frigidaire.com.
Convection Cooking
Convection
attributes
Convection cooking uses a fan to cir
c
ulate 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 c
ooking several food items at once.
Convection bake Reduce cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) from the recipe unle
ss the recipe is written for
convection baking.
Preheat the oven for best results.
Convection roast Convection roast is best for meats and do
es not require preheating for most meats and poultry.
Reducing the cooking temperature for convec
tion 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 faste
r
, 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 a meat probe if available with your appliance. Meat probes ar
e
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 fr
om browning properly.
When cooking meats, use the broiler pan a
nd insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch
grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. If you do not have one of these accesso-
ries, they may be purchased from www.frigidaire.com.
