INTRODUCTION

UNDERSTANDING THE CONVECTION OVEN

The Convection Oven is a kitchen appliance used for cooking almost anything. It can be used to cook meat, fish, veggies or fries. It uses a convection mechanism to circulate air around the food at high speed; literally it produces extra energy that meets surface of the roast forcefully which crisps up the outer surface of food.

DOES A CONVECTION OVEN COOK FASTER THAN A CONVENTIONAL OVEN?

Convection oven cooks 25 to 30 % faster that the regular ovens at 25% lower temperature. Convection ovens are hotter because of the extra force/energy they produce, about 25 to 30% extra energy depending on the fan's power. Literally, the convection cooks hotter and faster than the conventional oven.

HOW QUICK DOES FOOD COOK IN A CONVECTION OVEN?

The convection oven operates by circulating hot air around food through a fan and an exhaust system. Meaning food is endlessly engulfed in a cozy environment, so there is no need moving food around while cooking; yet, it still achieve beautiful outcome of a nice golden-brown color. Its either you cook at a lower temperature of 25 to 30 percent or same temperature at a lower cooking time; but you need to always keep an eye on the food from time to time.

CONVERTING CONVECTIONAL OVEN RECIPES TO A CONVECTION OVEN

Almost all convectional ovens recipes I have seen on the net usually come with specifics about the cooking time and temperature. So that makes it less difficult to convert a conventional oven recipe to a convection oven recipe.

The general rule is either you cook at a lower temperature or reduce the cooking time or simple do both. As said earlier, easiest method is to reduce the cooking temperature by 25 to 30 percent than what the recipe calls for. Let’s say a recipe calls for 375 degrees F, you can reduce to 350 or 340 F.

However, some convection ovens are built to automatically adjust by themselves. Meaning, the oven can adjust your setting from 400 to 375 to compensate for the extra hotness. So study your model manual well to understand how your oven operates and how to make adjustments.

Alternatively, you can also reduce the cooking time by 25% and leave the temperature the same. (Base on an assumption that your oven does not self adjust itself). But note, it is advised to shorten cooking temperature by 30 to 50 degrees when roasting meats and 25 degrees for pies and cookies.

TIPS FOR COOKING WITH A CONVECTION OVEN

The convection oven produces an extra energy in the form of hot air that is distributed through a fan located inside the oven. The whooshing air is constantly blowing over the surface of the food, so the surface cooks faster than inside of the food. Even though the hot air do not come in contact with the interior of the food but the hotness of the oven will be cooking food simultaneously from the outer side.

Convection ovens are perfect in a situation where you want to roast large meat cuts but you want the outside to be nicely brown and medium rare on the inside. This includes all beefs in general, apart from pork that needs to be cooked medium.

Although, roasting meats in the convection ovens can shrink or dry out the meat's surface because of the constantly hot air blowing directly over the surface of the roast unlike in convectional ovens. So, it is best to make some few adjustments when you are roasting meats. However, in general, you have a choice of either reducing the temperature or shortening cooking time or a bit of both. But when cooking chicken and turkey, it has to be cooked properly, as in cooked into the deepest side all the way. And since the hot air isn’t blowing into the interior of the meat, its best to reduce the cooking temperature and leave the cooking time as it is.

Additional Convection Oven Tips

Since the constant hot air produced by the convection oven blows from the back and rotated all over the oven because in most convection oven you find the fan located at the back. You may want to use pans that are not high to allow the radiant heat have
