Chef’s Tips
*CHV – Use the drain valve at the oven’s bottom front to drain water from the evaporator. Although most CHV recipes require water in the evaporator, frozen breaded products are an exception. Optimal results for these products will be obtained by running the oven dry.
**Solid sheet pans will work also but perforated sheet pans work best with frozen, breaded products and are recommended if available.
