choosing ThE accEssoriEs
Traditional convection cooking does require cookware.
You should, however, use only cookware that you would use in your normal oven.
Microwave-safe containers are not usually suitable for convection cooking; don’t use plastic containers, dishes, paper cups, towels, etc.
If you wish to select a combined cooking mode (microwave and grill or convection), use only recipients that are microwave-safe and oven-proof.
For further details on suitable cookware and utensils, refer to the
Cookware Guide on page 50-51.
