HOW THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS
 2: How the Technology Works
THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND THE TORNADO
The Tornado uses a patented combination of high
speed forced air convection, heating, and micro-
wave energy to cook food up to 12 times faster
than conventional methods.
At a very high speed of circulation, a controlled,
smoothly flowing field of hot air forms a shroud
around the food. This takes place in conjunction
with measured, precise bursts of microwave energy,
creating a unique set of temperature and moisture
control conditions within the food that preserves
and enhances flavor.
Figure 2 illustrates the five steps of the technology
used by the Tornado Oven. These steps, described
below, are all computer controlled.
1. The internal heaters transfer energy to the
recirculating airflow.
2. The recirculating airflow circulates at speeds up
to 60 mph (100 km/h) down and around the
food item.
3. Simultaneously, a bottom radiant heater provides
heat transfer to the bottom of the food product.
4. The recirculating air passes through a Catalytic
Converter where excess grease and odors are
combusted and removed.
5. Working in parallel with the recirculating airflow
and bottom IR element, the microwave system
couples microwave energy from the bottom of
the cavity evenly into the food items.
NOTE: An easy way to understand our cooking is
to think of the microwave cooking from the inside
out and the airflow cooking from the outside in.
The two energy gradients meet and greatly reduce
the cook time.

Cavity in which the food products are cooked.
MODES AND STATES
Mode
A mode is a software environment that allows certain
operations to occur. These modes consist of ,
-, , ,  , , and .
Off Mode
When in the  mode, the cook cavity tempera-
ture is below 150
º
F (65
º
C), and power is not being
supplied to the oven’s main components – the con-
vection blower, heaters, magnetron circuits, and
radiant element. However, there is power to the
oven controls (keypad and display).
Warm-Up Mode
The mode in which the oven is warming itself to
the pre-defined cook cavity (CC) and radiant ele-
ment (IR) set temperatures.
Idle Mode
Mode in which an oven has successfully warmed
to the pre-defined set temperatures, and the oven is
ready to receive cook commands via the keypad.
When in the  mode, the first 8 food groups
will appear on the display.
Until the oven receives cook commands, it will
cycle the blower motor/heaters in order to main-
tain the set temperature.
Cook Mode
Mode during which the oven is cooking (execut-
ing a food item). Note that a food item, or recipe,
is a sub-component of a food group (see 
 , below).
Cool Down Mode
During  , the oven’s main convection
blower circulates until the cook cavity temperature
is below 150ºF (65ºC). All major oven components
are turned off except for the cooling fan, convec-
tion motor, and oven controls.
Edit Mode
The  mode enables the user to change existing
menu settings.

RECIPE DEVELOPMENT AND COOKING TIPS
DEVELOPING RECIPES
TurboChef ovens use a combination of hot air and
microwave energy to cook food. While experience
with a convection or microwave oven will reveal
both similarities and significant differences, the key
to creating good recipes for a variety of different
food items is to understand the following rules:
1. TurboChef ovens use a moving shroud of hot air
to surround the food and lock in moisture.
2. The hot air provides most of the heating and
browning of foods. The higher the air velocity,
the faster heat energy is transferred to the food.
3. The microwave provides heat to the center of
the food. Do not try to do all the cooking with
the microwave.
4. The weight of food determines the Total Cook
Time required. The more weight, the longer the
required Total Cook Time. (Most medium thick
crust pizzas cook in about 100 seconds.)
5. Thick and dense foods may need to be flipped
half way through the Cook Cycle.
6. The microwave tends to work best in the earlier
stages of cooking, then use hot air to finish off the
cooking process.
7. Color develops primarily at the end of a Cook
Cycle. Higher velocities of air in the later stages
of cooking will strongly control the food’s color.
Development Methodology
When developing a recipe, it is important to keep
the following in mind:
1. The Total Cook Time depends heavily on the
weight, portion and makeup of a product.
When developing a recipe for the Tornado, a
good starting point for the Total Cook Time is to
divide the item’s conventional cook time by 10.
2. The two main components of an Event are the
Percentage Microwave and Percentage Air. Each
affects a product differently.
o
Air provides color, caramelization, and texture,
when moisture is not active.
o
Microwave rapidly cooks a product and keeps
the product’s moisture moving.
Although the Tornado oven is a speed cook oven,
thinking in terms of conventional cooking methods
can be a great help in establishing a good starting
point from which to begin testing and refining a
recipe’s settings.
By looking at the cooking process behind three
different types of products, the following examples
highlight the connection between traditional cook-
ing methods and the world of speed cooking.
Example 1: Frozen Pizza
A frozen pizza will have to be defrosted, cooked
and then finished. These three stages – defrost, cook
and finish – correspond to speed cooking as follows.
Defrost:
High microwave to bring the item out of the fro-
zen state.
Cook:
Microwave and air are used to cook the Item.
Depending on the item, cooking may need to take
place over several Events to maximize the quality.
Recipe Development and Cooking Tips
22
Finish:
Little to no microwave is used. The air is moderate
to high to finish the caramelization of the product,
and achieve the desired color.
A recipe might look like this:
Example 2: French Fries & Frozen Puff Dough
Items
Just like with a frozen pizza, these two items will
have to be defrosted, cooked and then finished.
However while French fries and frozen puff dough
items must go through the same stages of cooking,
the specifics of these stages will differ based on the
specific properties of the items being cooked.
A recipe for French fries might look like this:
For frozen puff dough, the recipe could be:
Note that for the frozen puff dough, a rest was
added between the cooking and finishing steps. This
allows the product to achieve its full-layered effect.
The Importance of Consistency
Speed cook ovens leave little room for error and
a slight change in the product’s weight or starting
state can have major effects on the final outcome.
Because of this, product consistency is extremely
important in developing and using recipes.
When developing and using recipes, a consistent
outcome will depend on keeping the following
variables constant.
o
Portion and/or weight
o
Beginning temperature and state
The same product cooked from frozen and fresh
will have two very different recipes.
o
Cooking vessel
Different materials react with the technology in
different ways. For a list of suggested cooking
materials for use with the Tornado
oven, see the
Ovenables section on the following page.
o
The oven’s state
It is recommended that the oven be on for at
least 30 minutes prior to developing recipes.
Don’t be Afraid to Experiment
In developing recipes, don’t be afraid to experiment.
Write down current settings and then start testing
variations. Old recipes can always be re-programmed

RECIPE DEVELOPMENT AND COOKING TIPS
OVENABLES
When cooking with the Tornado, using the
following products will help prolong the life of the
oven and enhance food quality.
Dual-Ovenable Paper Board
o
Pactiv
®
Pressware
o
Champion (recently purchased by Pressware)
o
Chinet Company Ovenware II
Although designed as single use, dual-ovenable
paper board, paper pulp, and plastics can usually
sustain multiple uses before being disposed. In
addition to reducing the number of dishes to wash,
these products perform well and do not break
when dropped in the middle of a busy kitchen.
Dual-ovenable paper board, paper pulp, and plastics
can serve as the packaging material from the food
manufacturer, and in some cases can function as the
serving container as well.
“Crimped” paper board is Pressware. The crimps
relax during cooking. These containers will not
accept a dome lid; however, they can be sealed with
lidding film.
Dual-ovenable pulp paper products (Chinet Co.
Ovenware II) are molded. They perform similarly
to Pressware but do not deform and will accept a
snap-on dome lid after cooking. These products
look best in black, as light colors slightly discolor
in the oven.
Both products are available in many shapes and
sizes, and are priced proportionately. The small-
est suitable size should be used to minimize cost.
Usable life can be extended 2-3 times by using an
inexpensive baking sheet as a liner.
Baking Papers/Sheets
o
Silicone-coated or Quillon
In many cases, paper baking sheets can be used alone
in the oven. The need for Pressware/Ovenware II
is mostly to contain significant fat/moisture from
some foods during cooking. Silicone-treated baking
sheets are more suitable to TurboChef applications,
and the paper comes in different weights. Quillon
paper does work, but will discolor and become
brittle much more easily.
Ceramics, Earthenware, Corningware
Ceramics, stone/earthenware and corningware can
be successfully used in the oven. These products
may absorb a bit more microwave energy than the
paper or plastic products, but this is easily adjusted
in the cook setting, often without extending cook
times. The ability to be used almost indefinitely
makes these products advantageous for long term
costs. However, they absorb a lot of heat energy in
the oven and are heavier than other alternatives, so
handling is a safety issue. If dropped, ceramics and
stone/earthenware may break, but if maintained,
will outlast the restaurant. Handling/dishwashing
costs should be considered.
Toughened Glass
o
Pyrex
®
and Borosilicate Glass
Toughened glass (Pyrex) performs well in the ovens
and shares the benefits and drawbacks of ceramics
and stone/earthenware products. Pyrex, although it
performs well, should be contemplated for use in a
commercial kitchen very carefully. If dropped, Pyrex
can break into many small pieces and slivers of glass,
posing a potential risk to food safety.
24
Plastics
o
CPET and PCTA
CPET and PCTA plastic containers may be used,
but are dangerous. If there is no alternative to CPET
or PCTA, then the application must be carefully
structured and controlled. Although PCTA has a
melting temperature approximately 50ºF (25ºC)
higher than CPET, both products perform similarly.
Both can get soft, deform and possibly melt in the
TurboChef.
Users need to consider the foods to be cooked,
cook times, cook settings, and oven temperature set
point. Specifically, oils and fats contained in foods
can become hotter than the melt point of the plastics
when subjected to extended microwave and high
air temperature. If using CPET/PCTA, the oven
set temperature needs to be reduced to 400-425ºF
(204-218ºC) and the IR Set Temperature must be
reduced to 500ºF (260ºC).
Used within the constraints of the material, plastic
containers hold their shape well, and can accept a
snap-on lid designed for the application, making
them suitable for HMR applications. Foods can be
shipped in the container from the manufacturer with
a film seal lid. (Remove the film for cooking and
snap on a dome lid after cooking.) These containers
are easily formed to most shapes and configura-
tions, and have an “upscale” look and presentation.
NordicWare
®
Constructed from heavy-duty, high-temperature
plastics, NordicWare
®
products are a valuable utility
in the oven, especially in a “ribbed tray” or “oval
plate” which is good for heating seafood, pasta, or
side items. These products are ideal because of
their low cost and ability to be reused.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
The catalytic converter is installed in the return air
duct behind heater assembly. A qualified technician
must perform the removal or installation of the
catalytic converter.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The catalytic converter can
be cleaned with TurboChef Oven Cleaner
and thoroughly rinsed with distilled water. Let the
catalytic converter air dry before re-installing. If
TurboChef Oven Cleaner is not available, DO NOT
SUBSTITUTE  USE DISTILLED WATER ONLY.
Due to the nature of most foods and the physics
governing the operation of the oven, grease buildup
downstream of the cook cavity is inevitable. A
strict cleaning regiment can solve a majority of the
problems; however, recirculation of undiluted grease-
saturated air is the main cause of downstream grease
accumulation and any associated residual flavors.
Airborne grease tends to collect and bake onto the
oven’s surface downstream of the cook cavity. Due
to the high operating temperatures of the oven, this
grease will start to rapidly decompose into deriva-
tive organic compounds.
These decompositional derivatives generally have
positive and negative effects on cooking. Shorter
chain derivatives add favorable flavor characteristics
to the food, while the higher order carbon chains
lend unpleasant flavor characteristics, such as bitter,
tarry tastes. The installation of a catalytic converter
greatly affects the grease handling and any residual
flavors which might build up over time. A properly
operating catalytic converter causes the conversion
of airborne grease into water, carbon dioxide, and
small amounts of nitrogen and oxygen. The catalytic
converter acts as a combustion chamber for airborne
grease. The catalysts present on the filter lower the
ignition temperature of the airborne grease from
approximately 700ºF to 450–550ºF (371ºC to
232–288ºC), allowing combustion to occur. The
operating temperature of the oven directly deter-
mines the percentage of airborne grease conversion.
A single pass of the air stream yields a 20–30%
improvement in air quality.
Problems with the catalytic converter are indicated
by a decrease in the effectiveness of browning (caused
by a reduction in airflow) or by flavor transfer from
one food group to another.
If you experience a problem with the catalytic
converter, contact a TurboChef qualified service
agency, Customer Service at 800.90TURBO/
+1 214-379-6000, or your Authorized Distributor.
