About


NOTE: 
If you will use a conventional Oven, follow the temperature in your recipe guide. 
If you will use a convection Oven or a Turbo broiler, you need to make an adjustments for the temperature. 
Always remember: Turbo broiler or convection oven circulates heated air using a fan. This not only prevents overheating of food but also helps warm the food faster than the conventional oven. In baking, we need to lower the temperature for even results.
