Introduction
The new Advantium® oven uses breakthrough Speedcook technology to cook food with light. Foods cook in a fraction of the time needed in conventional ovens with delicious results. Advantium browns, bakes, roasts, broils and crisps just like a conventional oven, and requires no preheating.
Advantium uses high intensity halogen lights to cook food from the top and bottom simultaneously, cooking the surface and interior to seal in moisture and flavor. For added convenience, the Advantium oven can be converted to a fully functional microwave by simply pressing a button.
The newest Advantium oven, a 240-volt oven with convection, uses halogen lamps, a ceramic heater, and a convection system work with microwave energy to cook the surface and interior simultaneously to produce the delicious taste and texture you expert.

Other Helpful Cooking Tips
 Always check foods for doneness at minimum time. When baking multiple runs of foods, such as cookies, let the black metal trays cool to room temperature between runs. To determine the cooking time and setting for your own favorite recipes, refer to a similar recipe on this site. Clean the oven interior and lamp covers frequently. A build-up of grease or food particles on the lamp covers can lengthen cooking times.
|
Biscuits & Cookies: Biscuits and cookies should be placed on the black metal tray as shown to ensure consistent texture and even browning.
|
Oval Shapes: Oval shapes, such as crescent rolls and bread sticks, bake best when placed on the black metal tray in spoke fashion.
|
|
Prevent Sticking: Some foods may tend to stick when cooked on the black metal tray (example: boneless, skinless chicken breasts containing little fat). To prevent sticking, brush the tray lightly with olive oil or vegetable oil.
|
Sauces & Toppings: When basting meats or chicken with sauce or adding toppings, such as crumbs or cheese to a casserole, add them during the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking time to prevent overbrowning.
