I find my convection oven is a good thing, but differs from a
conventional oven. Convection cooks faster and more even..Think the
burning winds from hell. Cooking methods differ from the conventional
oven as you cook meats higher in a pan to expose them to the air flow.
This way Roast chicken the skins are more crisp, roasted meats cook
faster and pastry and pies turn out quicker...But there is a learnig
curve as it is different from conventional. Your oven's manual should
have a written description of things you should do...such as reducing
times and temperatures. But overall they are a good thing.
