We have a new fifth and it came with a Micro/Convection oven. I have never used one and there was no info on how to cook with it. How do you use it with regular recipes. The guy said use it like an oven. Do you use the same time as an oven? Help please.

somebody posted a conversion chart from oven to C.oven. perhaps they will jump in here.bumpy

It is usually less time and also make sure you use low sided cooking sheets and try and keep meal in center from sides and above and below. Use the center rack or buy a small round one. They cook very nice but they can have hot spots so learn where they are in the oven.

A convection oven has a fan inside that distributes the heat evenly, I love mine. I usually bake or roast at the same temperature as I do in a regular oven. Sometimes I might turn the temp. down 25 degrees if I'm not in a hurry, LOL.

That has not been my experience. In fact, one of the features I appreciate most is; no hot spots. I use all types of baking sheets based on what is required for the dish I am cooking. Placement in the oven is based on having enough space around the dish for proper air flow. All ovens are different. Cooking times are different from oven to oven. You will have to keep your eye on yours until you get an idea on what this oven does. Convection ovens usually require less cooking time.

Look up Brand, Model # online to find a manual. Our GE Profile Micro/Convection has hot spots. But I do use it like a normal oven without much of an adjustment on temps. I use silicone, metal and glass pans depending on what I'm baking.
