CONVECTION COOKING
With convection cooking, you can use your
Cuisinart oven as a traditional oven. The
microwave function is not used.
During convection cooking, a heating
element is used to raise the temperature
of the air inside the oven. A fan gently
circulates this heated air throughout the
oven, over and around the food, producing
golden brown exteriors and rich moist
interiors.
Because the heated air is kept constantly
moving, preventing a layer of cooler air
from developing around food, some foods
cook faster than in regular oven cooking.
Also, foods lose less moisture and are able
to retain nutrients better.
This oven can be programmed for ten
different cooking temperatures for up to 99
minutes, 99 seconds.
