There are just a few adjustments you need to make for cooking with convection. First, always use a rack 9should come with the unit) to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Second, lower the cooking temp about 25 degrees. Or, use the recipe recommended temp. but cook a slightly shorter time. Remember not to use plastic. I bought a variety of silicone cookware because it can be used in for microwaving and baking. Look for products by Orca - a little pricey, but excellent quality. When using silicone pans, be sure you place them on something solid like a pizza pan because silicone gets very flexible when hot, making it a challenge to pick up the pans.
