Congratulations on your choice of a Blue Creek wall oven. Your convection oven
combines the best of two cooking methods, convection and conventional baking or
roasting, in a self-cleaning oven.
The convection oven is actually a conventional oven that circulates heated air within
the oven. As both bake and broil heating elements cycle on and offwith the thermostat,
a fan keeps the heated air circulating around the food. The constantly recirculating
heated air in the convection oven strips away the layer of cooler air that surrounds the
food. Consequently, many foods cook more quickly. Evenly distributed heat makes
multiple rack cooking possible. Convection roasted meats retain their natural flavor
and juiciness with less shrinkage than conventional roasting.
In addition to the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking, your oven is also a
fine full featured "bake and broil" oven. You can cook your "old favorite" recipes as you
have in the past. The conventional bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparing
various foods when convection cooking may not be as beneficial, as when cooking
foods in covered casseroles or clay pots.
Before you begin cooking with your new oven, please take a few minutes to road and
become familiar with the instructions in this book. On the following pages you will find
a wealth of information regarding all aspects of using your new oven. By following the
instructions carefully, you will be able to fully enjoy and properly maintain your oven
and achieve excellent results with the food you prepare.
