6. Cooking Tips

• Preheating: For best results, preheat the oven for 3-5 minutes before adding food.

• Doneness: Always check food for proper doneness and internal temperature before serving.
• Overcrowding: Avoid overcrowding the oven. Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even air circulation and crispiness.
