Question 3

Convection oven recipe conversion guidelines

Accepted Answer

Cooking is not an exact science, due to many variables such as size and
quantity of food, temperature of food when first put in the oven, etc.
Convection cooking takes place due to the forced flow of hot air, thus saving energy by cooking approximately 25-30% more quickly than conventional ovens.
Foods lose less moisture and retain nutrients.
The internal temperature in the convection oven is easily regulated since the
fan keeps the hot air constantly circulating so the food cooks uniformly.
The following are general guidelines for converting conventional recipes
for use in a convection oven.*
 
Option one: Bake at the same temperature that the
conventional recipe recommends, but for less time.

Option two: Bake for the amount of time that the conventional recipe calls for,
but reduce the temperature of the oven by about 25 degrees F.

Option three: (Best) Bake for a little less time than the conventional recipe
calls for, and also reduce the temperature of the oven.

Question 4

Are electric ovens better than gas?

Accepted Answer

Broilking Professional countertop convection ovens have been chosen over many competitors in some really tough testing. Broilking Professional ovens have been a big hit with national chains using this to keep a smaller footprint in some cases, as well as higher quality, fresher foods.
 
Electric Ovens are far superior to Gas ovens, because:
Keeps very reliable temperature
Very good at broiling
Easier to clean
Heats more evenly and produce less moisture- This is very important in baking
Better at browning because it does not introduce vapor as a byproduct of combustion
Convection cooking is really the best option for a majority of baking needs
More inexpensive on both the unit cost and installation (as cost can rise with gas ovens due to installing of gas piping, etc.)
