General Electric is a huge conglomerate that has been making home appliances for generations. Just as our parents and grandparents have used GE appliances, we, too, have learned to trust and depend on it as a part of our household. Today, GE continues to grow and move in tune with the trend. One of this exciting trends is the GE halogen ovens, and GE is on the forefront with its line of halogen ovens. Here is a brief summary of what GE has to offer.
The GE Toaster
This is no ordinary toaster because it uses the halogen heating technology that allows one to do more than just heat bread. The exact model number is the 169104 GE halogen oven, and as soon as the halogen bulb is hot enough, you can cook main courses and sidings, any way you want. It comes with a timer, as all ovens do, which is a great help if you want to do other things aside from waiting for the food to cook. The auxiliary fan prevents the unit from overheating and overcooking the food.
The GE Convection Oven
The GE convection oven is the broiler redefined. It's a vast improvement on broiling meat because it avoids the pitfalls of dried up, overcooked meat that the old-style broiler tends to do. What GE did with its convection oven is to take a step further by giving you the added feature of being able to do more than broil food. You can actually cook stews and soup dishes with the GE convection ovens.
The GE Halogen Oven
This is a glass oven that operates like the regular oven except for roasting. The glass food chamber makes it all the more interesting because you see the food cook before your eyes. Meats, vegetables, desserts, and a lot more can become amazing food concoctions with this GE halogen oven.
GE Oven and Ranges
Now, GE really carries this line but it has done a few tweaks to it by adding the halogen bulbs and a set of burners. So, you have the best of both worlds, why look for anything else?
Are you also looking for some recipes for your new oven? Well check these out!
It's not just in the ingredients, but also in the cook and how she or he works with the kitchen tools - and this is why learning how to cook with the halogen oven should be given sufficient time before you perfect your meals.
When you get your new halogen oven, you must read the instructions on care, maintenance, voltage, and set-up. Become familiar with the new technology by starting with simple dishes, or even snacks. If you can, find recipes online by surfing under Google or other search engines for "halogen recipes". Avoid going for the more difficult recipes at the start, so you do not get frustrated right away.
Technically, you cannot fry or deep fry with the halogen oven. The most you can do with frying is stir fry which uses very little oil that the food absorbs almost immediately. Thus, stay away from recipes that require large amounts of oil to cook the food.
Fortunately, you are left with so much more choices. You can broil chicken, or other meats to make a pot roast or crispy coated meat dishes. You can stew meats and vegetables, steam vegetables, make soups or gumbo, and bake all sorts of desserts. You can even grill kebabs or barbeque vegetables, fish, seafood, and other meats.
Since you do not fry or use a lot of oil in cooking, you will be able to eat healthier, without sacrificing your regular daily intake. Here is one recipe you might enjoy as a start:
Grilled Vegetable Kebab
Combine 500 grams plain yoghurt, grated ginger, and cumin. Cut 3 medium onions, 2 bell peppers, and spicy cheese into chunks or wedges. Pickle your mint leaves and mix with a little of the yoghurt.
Cook the 250 grams potatoes then add to the marinade or yoghurt mix. After leaving them for a few minutes, you can then skewer the potatoes, onions, peppers and cheese. Keep brushing them with the yoghurt mixture for taste. Cook on high using the halogen oven,. Then serve with mango chutney, tikki paste, chapattis, and salad leaves mixed with olive oil and vinegar.
