This review is from: Convection Oven Cookery (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)

I was hoping for more "general" information about the convection oven. Plus, I am a firm believer in PICTURES! Pictures help make recipes easier to follow. I also expected more common dishes, some of the ingredients are rather hard (and expensive) to come by.
