Combination Cooking - Convection + Micro Power
Combination cooking is ideal for many foods. The microwave
power cooks them quickly, whilst the oven gives the traditional
browning and crispness. All this happens simultaneously,
resulting in most foods being cooked in
1/2
-
1/3
of the conventional
cooking time.
Not all foods are suited to cooking by this method and in many
cases small items which cook quickly by CONVECTION will not
gain anything by being cooked by Combination.
