I still prefer a regular oven because that's what I'm used to. I was never quite sure how the convection oven would cook anything so I didn't use it much.
I found out thru experimentation that cornbread and cakes have to be elevated on the wire racks that come with it...so does popcorn that pops in the bag. Biscuits and cookies can be baked directly on the plate that comes with it. I put tin foil down first. I also elevate casseroles. In other words, anything that's dense has to be elevated to get even baking. Other than that, times and temps are the same as a regular oven. Oh yeah, elevate pie, too.
Only Irish coffee provides in a single glass all four essential food groups: alcohol, caffeine, sugar and fat.
