Discover a new way of cooking
Choosing the type of oven that's right for you depends on your specific needs. But the wave of the future is convection cooking. Convection uses a fan to create a rapid flow of air in a heated oven that blows away the envelope of cold air surrounding the food, which delivers faster searing and enhanced appearances. So if you're serious about cooking, a convection oven is your best bet. Here are a few other key benefits with a convection oven:
- Hot air flows evenly into the food from all sides for balanced cooking.
- Heat circulates quickly and seals in roast and poultry juices.
- The top of food browns and crisps nicely.
- Simply put in the conventional time, and it precisely converts to convection on its own.
On the other hand, there are a few advantages to purchasing a conventional oven. The biggest by far is price. A convection oven has more parts to deliver all of those perks - and more parts means a larger cost to you. Another benefit to a conventional oven, other than its being very familiar, is a greater variety of range options in both electric and gas.
But if you think you have to choose one over the other based on gas or electric, there's new hope. Some manufacturers now produce models that offer you both conventional and convection cooking. No matter which style you choose, make sure the controls are easy for you to use and all the features you want are included.
