Abstract:
Methods for heat treating food products include controlling a temperature of a heating element to a maximum temperature correlated to a desired temperature for the food product. A sensed temperature of the heating element may be used to control the maximum temperature. An oven includes a heating element and a temperature sensor configured to sense the temperature of the heating element, and a controller that limits the temperature the heating element based on output from the temperature sensor.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for cooking a food product from a not-fully-cooked state to a fully-cooked state, the method comprising:\n cooking the food product from a not-fully-cooked state to a fully-cooked state in an oven with an electrically energized heating element while a temperature of the heating element is controlled not to exceed a maximum temperature defined as the sum of: (a) a predetermined temperature selected from the group consisting of:\n (i) for a pastry food product, a temperature X that is less than a burn temperature of a surface of the food product, and \n (ii) for a meat or fish food product, a temperature Y that is a desired internal doneness temperature of the food product, plus \n (b) a predetermined droop offset.
