Thank you Vanessa for an excellent 101. I am a newbie baker, and am on the quest for a perfect chocolate ship recipe / procedure. I have tried several recipes (not yours, yet) and my cookies usually are puffed up and slightly dry and not at all soft and "greasy" like I would like. I have tried reducing the flour, and increasing the butter, but still never hit the perfect spot. I do have a new over thermometer for checking my conventional oven, but the thermometer can give me a wide range of temps with the oven setting on the same temp. Mine is an old (31 years) gas oven. Thanks for all of your help!
+kaffepojke Hi! Interesting problem. There could be several reasons why your cookies are turning out like that. Have you seen my Ultimate Cookie Troubleshooting Guide?

Hi Tessa, i enjoyed ur video on baking soda VS baking powder, i must say that you are very good with all the basic info required to cook anything and ur video was very helpful to me...keep doing the good work
Thank you very much for the information. I am going toplam buy an oven themometer right away. And you speak very clearly. I am not a native English speaker. Thanks a lot
hey thanks for your informative video, im just starting to bake and i only make banana bread. its really helpful to find informative videos like this for beginners. can you upload more of these? like the things you learned along the way in your experiences, I would like to know for example how ingredients influence the texture (eg. an extra egg, or how to make something fluffier/lighter, more moist or chewy). thank you :)
Great video. When I select convection on my oven, toaster oven & microwave oven, they automatically lowet the temp by 25° Be sure to check your owners manual to see if your oven does it before lowering the temp.
this is great. I always grew up with my mum having both types in one oven. basically in Australia we call it a fan -forced oven (basically the fan that circulates the air ) and just a standard oven. lol us aussies use anything that is easier. I really keep to invest in that thermometer. thanks for the heads up with this vid.
I enjoyed your video and currently have oven temperature issues with the indicator knob which is blank. I will stop guessing the temp and invest in a good oven temp indicator. Again, a very nice video. TY.
Hi, what if I already preheat the oven according the recipe but when I put the baked goods in the oven on the process of baking the temperature suddenly drop down or rising up too much?
Thank you Tessa very helpful. I was reading the comments below and was shocked at how mean people can be. So sorry if it hurt you. I really don't think you speak too fast or over pronounce your vowels. Ignore all. I am a teacher in Pretoria South Africa and you are fine. People mock what is foreign to them, maybe your dialect is different from them. PS your dialect is same as spoken her in SA. I am Afrikaans
When using two trays in the oven for cookies do you have to rotate them halfway through.? Also if you're using the fan confectionate will they turn out the best with two trays or always go with just one tray please reply to me that would be great thank you so much love you Channel
Ok, so I'm guessing you're suggesting the top rack. Hmmm, I'd say after 50 plus years of baking I know using the top rack will brown the tops of what you're baking because that's where all the heat goes. Bottom rack they get a dark bottom because that's where direct heat is. And from my experience in baking the middle rack distributes the heat evenly. Maybe you should have made that little tidbit of knowledge available considering you're supposed to evidently be a pro at this. Keep in mind not everybody has a convection oven so talking in circles doesn't help. It would have been simpler to say "When cooking in a conventional oven use center rack and when using convection oven use top rack
+Baking with Best Me too! They definitely take a little experimenting with and getting used to, but don't you just love how fast and even they bake? :)
Great info. TY. What do you suggest for me. I plane on 24/7 camping. I want to cook a lot of veggie patties and French fry's. I don't need a oven for cooking hole turky. Any thoughts ?
I got a question regarding oven heating elements please. Im using a convention oven should I use both the top and bottom heat for baking cookies, cakes, muffins? Would really appreciate a comment/reply. Thank you! 🙏
It does because you need to be on the right temp to jump start the cooking or baking process. If you put your cookie dough at an oven that isn't pre heated, you won't have a consistent heat and the oven will need to reach whatever temp you've set, and your cookies will also go in line with that, making it an uneven temp with undesired results.
Oven thermometer is a good idea, but which one to buy? How do i know the stand-alone cheapy Amazon themometer is accurate? This feels like a rabbit hole..
Temperature should stay the same, the baking time will reduce the smaller the pan gets. This is a helpful guide: www.wilton.com/cake-serving-guide/cms-baking-serving-guide.html
Hello I have a question. I have a convection oven and I want to make cookies but they don’t have the temperature written on it and I can’t tell if I need to use the top or bottom heating thing or both? And if I do bake some cookies do I need to preheat if the recipe says to? And do I need an oven thermometer? I really wanna know so I don’t end up burning my house down 😅
I have a doubt with pizza base. It doesn't get cooked. I have tried cooking it a litte and then adding the toppings but still not very helpful.could u please give a video on how to bake pizza in a convection oven
I have a convection oven in India n the highest temperature is 230 degree celcius . My breads nt bake at the time given in the recipe . They take longer . I use sourdough n made dinner rolls of ur recipe bt they turned hard . Plz help .
I’ve never had an oven so I recently bought a mini convention oven from Costco. It’s a 1400 volt oven and I’ve been trying to bake. Last night, I tried to make cinnamon streusels and the recipe said to preheat and then bake for 15-20 minutes. There is no preheat setting on the little thing and I realized it heats up immediately. The streusels were ready in about 7 minutes. They were actually burning when I pulled them out. Maybe you’re right about the temperature not being accurate but what do I do about handling the time for baking? Should I just sit by and watch the processes and monitor it? I also did an experiment with half of the muffins where I put cupcake paper and half with a PAM spray. The one with the cupcake lining came out looking very nice and fluffy like how it should, but the one with PAM on it didn’t really fluffy up and was dense. Surprisingly they PAM one tasted a lot better too. Why is that?
one question as well, i have a oven with a fan inside and im having issues when i try to bake breads, they raise very well inside however the external layer gets too hard like a sell. let me know the right temp for breads and if any other suggestion as well. please reply or post a new video if you like to talk about baking breads.
after you remove your bread from the oven and brush it with some butter, take a room temp. damp cloth or towel and cover it. This way your crust will be soft. Also dont leave the bread in the oven till very dark brown.
Hi Jayanthi, I recently purchased the same oven. Do you use the upper rods or lower rods or both rods for baking cookies? Please do let me know. My cookies have been burning with the lower rods.
Hey can someone help me? How do I know how much I preheat? The cookies I’m baking needs to be baked at 180* and in 10 min, do I preheat at 180* and 10 min too then?
The first ever dessert I baked was souffle and my oven is convection and convention. For some reason, I luckily succeeded. However, I have never baked one again after the trauma i got from baking it >< I probably have to start from the basics of baking I guess.
alright so im from africa so our convention ovens work a little different and i was wondering if the same science still applies. we use steel drum and tiger saw to make slice in drum. then take sheet metal scrap from da foundry and slide dem in the slots, so now we have oven rack! some time two oven rack on nice drum! den we fill with charcoal or other village garbage like paper/straw/ and dry feed for live stock. i have russian gun seven six two. you say that we shoot the barrel with gun then poke in bamboo stalk that made hollow. then have child blow in bamboo to make air in barrel, make convection right? old used oil drum work very good, when you start fire oil residue light on fire, WHOLE DRUM ON FIRE! make all virus burn dead before make into oven. we no have cookie, but i toss big chicken inside and fire still burn from blowing air into closed barrel. kill chicken very fast and get hot to burn feather off. very thanks for video. we eat like king of England now. maybe fit baby pig inside for next cook and convection, hope pig die from suffocate and not burn. no pain.
Mercedes Garcia by oven do u mean microwave or oven . For microwave u have to do 15-30 intervals along with mixing after every interval until it is melted and if u don't your chocolate will burn as microwaves heat unevenly and a part of the chocolate will burn while the other part would be solid chocolate so this is my advice/answer!!

Why is it important to pre-heat your oven? Does it really make that much of a difference?
Halle Parsons yes it does!
It does because you need to be on the right temp to jump start the cooking or baking process. If you put your cookie dough at an oven that isn't pre heated, you won't have a consistent heat and the oven will need to reach whatever temp you've set, and your cookies will also go in line with that, making it an uneven temp with undesired results.
It's probably the same as frying, you wouldn't put your chicken or egg immediately on a cold cooking oil would you?
Halle Parsons yes

Mercedes Garcia by oven do u mean microwave or oven .
