- Vanilla Creme Brulee
With just eggs, sugar, cream and vanilla you can prepare custard in the steam oven. The maximum temperature should be 220°F and 50 steam time Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Vanilla Creme Brulee Steaming Easy custards, no water bath needed, beautifully caramelized and ready to enjoy. A rich smooth custard topped with fresh fruit or caramelized sugar is a wonderful indulgent treat and while this 5 ingredient recipe from NYT Cooking is simple to prepare, cooking it is made even easier by using the Steam Oven as no water bath is needed. Using a water bath to temper the heat when cooking delicate foods such as custard or flan is a brilliant method for cooking delicate foods, but when cooking custard in the Steam oven no water bath is needed. Not only is the cooking process simplified, the texture of the custard is the perfectly smooth and silky. INGREDIENTS 2 cups cream or half and half 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise OR 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp salt 5 egg yolks (large eggs) 1/2 cup sugar Additional sugar for caramelizing PREPARATION Heat the Steam oven in the Convection Steam Mode at 195°F (90.5C) Combine the cream, vanilla bean and salt in a heavy pan and cook over low heat until hot. Remove from the heat and let it steep for a few minutes before discarding the vanilla bean. Beat the egg yolks and sugar together until light. Stir a quarter of the cream into the mixture then pour the sugar-egg mixture into the cream and stir. Place 6, 4-oz ramekins in the Steam oven perforated pan or onto a rimmed baking sheet and fill each one with the prepared custard. Slide the pan into the oven and cook for 40 - 50 minutes until the custards are set. Cool the custards before refrigerating for at least 6 hours prior to serving. To Serve the Custard Adjust the top rack in the oven so the ramekins will sit 2 - 3" below the heating element. Heat the oven in the Broil Mode at 450F (232C) or on Medium for 5 minutes. Place the ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle a teaspoon of sugar in a thin layer over each ramekin. Slide into the oven and cook for about 5 minutes until the sugar melts.

- Slow Roasted Turkey Pieces
Low temperature roasting is not braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat such as turkey pieces . Set the oven to 160 - 200°F and a finish with 400 - 425°F for browning Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Slow Roasted Turkey Pieces Low Temperature Roasting Slow-cooked turkey legs roasted to perfection in a steam oven. Low temperature roasting is not to be confused with braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat. You can use a temperature between the range of 160 - 200°F and a finishing temperature of 400 - 425°F for a crisp golden brown finish. Roasting turkey pieces at a low temperature and finishing the cooking with a blast of high heat is a simple method for cooking turkey that yields great results. This is the perfect solution for people who don’t want to deal with cooking a large turkey or are only feeding a small number of people. Low temperature roasting is not to be confused with braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat. You can use a temperature between the range of 160 - 200°F and a finishing temperature of 400 - 425°F for a crisp golden brown finish. The turkey can be cooked in a combi steam oven using a combination of low humidity and the noted temperature range or in a convection oven using the Convection Mode and the noted temperature range. INGREDIENTS 2 bone in skin on turkey thighs 2 turkey drumsticks 1 bone-in turkey breast ¼ cup vegetable oil 1 tbsp Kosher salt ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper 1 tbsp preferred seasoning (some good options, mixed Italian Seasoning or Old Bay seasoning or your preferred BBQ seasoning) PREPARATION Allow approximately 40 - 60 minutes for the initial cooking and 12 minutes for the final browning. The final cooking can also be done in the oven or on the outdoor grill. Some things to consider when cooking turkey in this method: If you want to serve gravy with your turkey, I suggest purchasing some extra turkey legs to make stock and use the juices from the pan for extra flavor. Because the turkey is cooking at such a low temperature oven side dishes cannot be cooked at the same time so planning is key. Mix the seasonings in a small container and rub into the turkey pieces, cover and refrigerate overnight or a day or two in advance of cooking. Directions Heat the oven to 200℉, place the turkey pieces on a shallow rimmed baking sheet. If your oven has a meat probe slide the needle into the thickest part of the breast or thigh, taking care not to touch bone or let the tip of the needle touch the pan. Place the tray in the oven and program the probe to reach an internal temperature of 160℉. If your oven doesn’t have a meat probe, set the timer for 40 minutes and test the turkey in the thickest part of the breast or thigh with an instant read thermometer. Once the internal temperature has reached 160℉ continue to the next step. When the desired internal temperature has been reached, remove the pan from the oven and disconnect the meat probe. Pour off any accumulated juices to use for stock or to add to gravy and increase the oven temperature to 400°F. When the oven reaches temperature return the tray to the oven and set the timer for 12 minutes. The pieces should be golden brown and perfectly cooked at this time but additional time can be added if needed. Low Temperature Roast Turkey .pdf Download PDF • 241KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- Convection Baked Focaccia
A simple focaccia with fresh herbs, garlic, olive oil, or caramelized onions makes a great addition to a Mediterranean-style feast, but of course, there are unlimited options according to your taste. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Convection Baked Focaccia Convection Bake Mode Freshly baked bread with great flavor is a wonderful addition to any meal. For ease of preparation, you can’t beat focaccia, an easy-to-prepare dough that pairs well with a variety of toppings. A simple focaccia with fresh herbs, garlic, olive oil, or caramelized onions makes a great addition to a Mediterranean-style feast, but of course, there are unlimited options according to your taste. The first step to creating a great dough is to make sure the water is at the right temperature so that the yeast activates. It takes about 5 minutes to proof the yeast, but if the water is still flat and there are no bubbles or foam, then I am afraid it’s best to start over. The dough can be proofed using the Proof mode in your oven, or it can be left to rest in the refrigerator overnight for a long, slow rise and brought to room temperature prior to baking. Convection Bake is the ideal mode for baking focaccia. It ensures the bread achieves a wonderful pillowy texture while baking the crust to golden perfection. I bake my focaccia in a shallow-rimmed 10” x 14” baking pan and reduce it to the typical recipe temperature of 425F/220C to 400F/205C. INGREDIENTS 1 ⅓ cups warm water (100 -115F/ 38 - 46C) 1 (¼ oz) package active dry yeast 2 tsp honey or granulated sugar 2 tsp kosher salt 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour ¼ cup olive oil 2 tbsp fresh rosemary coarsely chopped ¼ cup white onion sliced very thinly Flaky sea salt PREPARATION Combine the warm water and honey (or sugar) in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook and sprinkle the yeast over the water. Stir to combine and let the mixture rest for about 5 minutes or until it is foamy with large bubbles around the edge. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour, salt, and olive oil. Once combined, increase the speed to medium and knead the dough for about 5 minutes. Add a small amount of flour if the dough does not form a ball around the hook and comes away from the sides. Select the Proof Mode in your oven. In this mode, the oven does not exceed 100F, maintaining the perfect draft-free warm space for proofing the dough. Place the dough in a clean, lightly oiled bowl and place it in the oven for approximately 40 - 50 minutes until it has doubled in size. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to fit your baking dish, then return it to the oven to proof for another 15 - 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, change the mode to Convection Bake , and set the temperature to 400F/220C. Poke deep dents all over the dough and drizzle extra virgin olive oil evenly over the surface. Sprinkle the prepared toppings over the dough and finish with a sprinkle of the salt flakes. Bake the focaccia for 20 minutes until golden.

- Introduction To Convection
A convection oven (also known as a fan-assisted oven or simply a fan oven) is an oven that has fans to circulate air around food which gives a very even heat. Introduction to Convection Discover the Benefits of Convection Cooking: A Guide to Efficient and Even Baking in a Convection Oven. A true convection oven features a fan on the back wall of the oven, covered by a baffle. The fan is encircled by heating elements, and when a convection mode is engaged, the ambient air in the oven is drawn into the baffle and heated. The heated air is forced out by the fan through ports around the baffle. Introduction to Convection When cooking with convection, heated air circulates around the oven, cooking food evenly from the edge to the center. Food can be cooked on multiple racks at one time and retain more moisture. Many large-capacity ovens also engage some heat from the top and bottom heating elements to ensure even cooking; these modes are known as Convection Bake and Convection Roast . A fan-assisted oven circulates the heated air; however, there is no heating element encircling the convection fan. Therefore, the same principles that apply to convection cooking should be used when cooking in a fan-assisted oven.

- Lobster Mac' n Cheese
While there are many recipes for Lobster Mac' n cheese, this one focuses on providing options for cooking the lobster and tips for baking the casserole in a steam oven. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Lobster Mac' n Cheese Steam Baking Mode Golden, crispy Steam Oven Mac 'n Cheese with fresh asparagus, blending creamy comfort and healthy greens. A steam oven is ideal for cooking lobster to perfection and baking casseroles. While there are many recipes for Lobster Mac' n cheese, this one focuses on providing options for cooking the lobster and tips for baking the casserole in a steam oven. Lobster tails can be steamed at a low temperature or roasted at a higher temperature with a combination of convection and steam. Steamed lobster tails have a mild delicate flavor while roasting the lobster tails at a higher temperature brings out more flavor in the meat. For best results when steaming lobster tails, place them in a solid pan with a little water, a splash of white wine and some lemon slices. There are a few steps to making this dish. First the lobster, pasta and cheese sauce must all be cooked then combined in a casserole dish to bake. Since everything is already cooked the casserole really only needs to be heated through. When baking a casserole in the steam oven there is no need to cover the casserole as the combination of convection and steam prevents the food from drying out. Also, since steam ovens have a smaller capacity than larger wall ovens the heating is much faster. Of course if you prepare the casserole a day in advance it’s best to let it sit outside of the refrigerator for an hour before baking to avoid having to leave it in the oven for too long. If you do prepare the casserole in advance, only add the topping mixture prior to baking. Recipe ingredients INGREDIENTS 3 - 4 lobster tails ¼ tsp Old Bay seasoning ½ tsp garlic herb seasoning 2 tbsp butter, softened ½ lb Cavatappi pasta For the Cheese Sauce 3 tbsp all-purpose flour 4 tbsp butter 3 cups half and half ½ tsp dry mustard powder 1 cup shredded, sharp Cheddar cheese 1 cup shredded, Gruyere or Mozzarella cheese ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese For the Topping ½ cup breadcrumbs 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 2 tbsp melted butter 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley 2 cloves garlic, minced PREPARATION To prepare the lobster tails, cut down the center of the shell in a straight line, turn the tail over and press in between each vertebrae with your thumbs to release the meat. Turn the tail over, gently lift the lobster out of the shell using your fingers to separate the meat as needed. Push the shell together and drape the meat over the shell. Combine the butter with the seasoning and spread over the lobster meat. To steam/poach the lobster , heat the steam oven in the Steam mode to 212 F/100 C. Place the lobster tails in a small solid pan with ½ cup of water and several lemon slices. When the oven comes to temperature, slide the pan into the oven and cook for 4 minutes. The poaching liquid can be added to the sauce for added flavor. OR To steam roast the lobster , heat the oven in the combination convection steam mode to 375 F/ 190 C. Place the lobster tails on a small rimmed baking sheet and bake for approx 4 minutes until the shell turns orange and the lobster meat is firm. Once the lobster is cooked and cooled, remove it from the shell and cut into bite sized pieces. Heat the water to cook the pasta and when it comes to a boil cook as directed. To make the sauce, heat a medium sized heavy saucepan over moderate heat. Add the butter and when melted stir in the flour and cook for 3 - 4 minutes taking care not to let it brown. Add the milk and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce thickens. Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat and fold in the three cheeses, stirring well to combine. Taste the sauce and add salt and freshly ground pepper to your taste. To bake the casserole, heat the steam oven in the combination convection steam mode to 350 F/176 C. Lightly butter or oil an ovenproof baking dish, approximately 8 x 11”/22 x 28cm Combine the cooked pasta, lobster and sauce and spread it into the baking dish. Combine the breadcrumbs, melted butter, Parmesan, garlic and parsley and spread over the top of the casserole. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until heated through.

- Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella - Just like Pizza!
Convection Bake is the ideal mode when baking Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella. You will have a light crisp perfectly baked crust YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella - Just like Pizza! Convection Bake Mode Golden cheese bread sliced and served fresh from the convection oven. Convection Bake is the ideal mode to choose when baking bread and pizza in your Convection oven. The heating element in the bottom of the oven directs powerful heat to the base of the crust while the heated air circulating around the oven helps form a light crisp perfectly baked crust. Because this Convection Bake recipe uses Rapid Rise Yeast, the dough requires only 20 minutes for proofing before being rolled out and topped with a generous helping of cheese. Basically, in approximately 45 minutes you are able to enjoy delicious homemade cheesy bread which is almost instant happiness. While this dough is easy to make getting the water temperature just right is key to success. Testing the water temperature on the inside of your wrist before adding to the dry ingredients is recommended to avoid adding water that is either too hot or too cold. While this recipe shares the same ingredients as pizza the dough is much thicker and because it’s thicker it can handle a more generous amount of cheese. You can certainly add additional flavor accents just take care not to weigh the dough down. The bread can be baked on a baking stone or a metal pan placed on the 1st or second rack from the bottom of the oven. INGREDIENTS Bread Dough 2 ½ cups all-purpose or bread flour 1 tsp Kosher salt 1 tsp sugar 1 tbsp, rapid rise yeast 1 cup warm water 1 tbsp olive oil Topping 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 3 tbs mayonnaise 1 tbsp chopped green onion Dash red chili flakes PREPARATION Combine the four, salt, sugar, and yeast in a medium-sized bowl. Combine the water and oil in a measuring cup and add to the flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon to form a soft dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface, and gather the dough together in a ball and knead a few times to create a smooth ball. Place the dough into a clean bowl add 1 tsp of olive oil and turn to coat with the oil. Cover with a kitchen towel or select the Proof mode in your oven and place uncovered in the oven to proof for 20 minutes. While the dough is proofing, combine the topping ingredients in a small bowl. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake Mode 450 degrees. If using a pizza stone place the stone in the oven during the preheating phase. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface, punch it down flatten it into a disc with the heel of your palm. Place the dough over the back of your hands and stretch it into a 12” circle. If using a pizza stone, place the dough on a lightly floured pizza peel. If using a baking pan, place the dough on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the dough and slide the bread into the oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

- WHAT IS THE BEST TEMPERATURE FOR ROASTING A CHICKEN?
WHAT IS THE BEST TEMPERATURE FOR ROASTING A CHICKEN? FAQ PAGE How What Why Do What is the Best Temperature for Roasting a Chicken? Starting the cooking at a high temperature of 425°F degrees (218°C) for 15 - 20 minutes gets the chicken off to a good start, but remember Convection cooks food from the edge to the core, so if you keep the temperature too high you risk overcooking the edges and the center may not be cooked through. So a combination of high heat for a short period of time and moderate heat, 350°F degrees (180°C) for the remainder of the cooking will yield the best results.

Shepherds Pie, a simple but very delicious casserole is actually very easy to prepare. Remember whenever a recipe says, to boil, steam, or blanch, don’t get out a saucepan, just turn on your Steam oven. This version of Shepherds Pie is packed with flavorful vegetables and uses a plant-based meat substitute; however, ground beef or ground lamb can be used instead. The potatoes can be steamed in the Steam oven or on the cooktop while the filling is being cooked, and of course I finished the pie in my convection oven that I know it will yield excellent results. I cooked the filling in an oven-safe cast iron pan so I didn’t have to transfer the filling to another pan for baking. INGREDIENTS 3 large baking potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks Butter and milk for mashing 2 tbsp oil 1 medium yellow onion, diced 3 cloves, garlic, minced 1 tsp fresh thyme or ½ tsp dried thyme 2 medium carrots, finely diced 1 medium rutabaga finely diced 1lb plant-based meat, or ground beef 2 tbsp tomato paste 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 2 cups vegetable stock (1 vegetable bouillon cube) 1 tbsp cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp cold water ½ cup frozen peas (defrosted) PREPARATION Steaming the Potatoes Steam Oven - place the potatoes in an oven-proof casserole with 1 cup of water and some salt. Cook in the Steam mode for 20 minutes until the potatoes are soft enough to mash. Cooktop - steam the potatoes with 2 cups of water and some salt for 15 - 20 minutes until soft enough to mash.

- Chocolate, Nut & Dried Cherry Slice
In this recipe, I am making good use of my Convection Microwave Speed oven to reduce the baking time to 10 minutes and also to melt the chocolate that I will spread over the baked slice. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Chocolate, Nut & Dried Cherry Slice Convection Microwave A popular and easy dessert from Australia. An easy dessert recipe that can be baked in convection or in the combination convection microwave speed mode. Slice is in effect a giant cookie that is baked in a shallow-rimmed baking pan and then cut into slices before serving. Slice is popular in Australia, served for morning or afternoon tea, and the variety of flavor combinations is astounding. Recipes for slice have one thing in common, they are very easy to put together and they have a relatively short baking time. In this recipe, I am making good use of my Convection Microwave Speed oven to reduce the baking time to 10 minutes and also to melt the chocolate that I will spread over the baked slice. INGREDIENTS ½ cup unsalted butter softened 1 tsp lemon zest ½ cup granulated sugar 1 large egg ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans ½ cup chopped dried cherries 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, sifted 1 ½ tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt 7 oz dark baking chocolate PREPARATION Grease a ¼ sheet pan (approx. 10 x 6") and line it with parchment leaving an overhang around the edge for easy removal and heat the Speed or Convection oven in the Convection mode to 330 degrees. Cream the butter, lemon zest, and sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg. Fold in the nuts and cherries, then add the sifted flour, baking powder, and salt. Spread the mixture into the pan and place in the oven. Touch the +Microwave option (if using a Speed oven) and use the default setting or select a low microwave setting. Set the timer for 10 minutes. When you remove the pan from the oven the slice should be a little soft as it will continue cooking. Place the chocolate in an oven-safe container, cover it, and melt using the 90W or recommended setting in your microwave. Remove the cooled baked slice from the pan, place it on a cutting board, and spread the melted chocolate evenly over the base. Let it set before slicing.

- Baked Deviled Fried Chicken
In this recipe this chicken soaks in a spicy buttermilk brine for 6 hours or overnight, it is then dredged in flour and set aside to rest before being baked in a convection oven. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Baked Deviled Fried Chicken Convection Bake Mode Nothing like fried chicken but without frying. Nothing says summertime like a meal with fried chicken, especially when it's accompanied by summer salads and fresh corn. As delicious as fried chicken is, it’s the frying in oil that is the tricky part. Cooking with hot oil requires careful attention and once the cooking is finished the oil has to be drained then safely stored and ultimately disposed of so baking the “fried” chicken in the oven is definitely an easier option. What is my solution? Of course "frying" the chicken in the convection oven. In this recipe this chicken soaks in a spicy buttermilk brine for 6 hours or overnight, it is then dredged in flour and set aside to rest before being baked. The buttermilk brine gives the chicken great flavor and spraying the chicken with some spray oil just before it goes into the oven helps with the crisping the batter. INGREDIENTS 8 bone-in chicken pieces 2 cups buttermilk 3 tsp salt 1 tsp ground black pepper 3 tsp dry mustard powder 3 tsp cayenne pepper 2 tsp garlic herb seasoning 2 cups all purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder Avocado spray oil PREPARATION Combine the buttermilk with the seasoning and stir well, add the chicken and turn so that each piece is evenly coated with the buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours or up to a day. Combine the flour and baking powder in a shallow bowl and dredge each chicken piece in the mixture. Shake off the excess and place the chicken on a rack in a shallow oven pan and set aside to rest before baking. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake mode to 400 degrees. Spray the chicken pieces with the avocado oil spray and slide the tray into the oven. Bake for 35 - 40 minutes until the outside is crisp.
