Subsequently, one may also ask, do you put water in the bottom of a roaster?
Adding water to the bottom of the roaster oven before cooking defeats the purpose of the unit, as its function is to roast, not steam, the food. During cooking, juices released by the bird or roast drip to the bottom of the cooking pan and are recycled as they travel up and around during the evaporation process.
Subsequently, question is, do you put water in a roaster oven when cooking a turkey? No. We do not recommend adding water to the pan because it creates a steam and may steam-burn the turkey. The turkey will produce its own flavorful juices. After cooking, you can extend the turkey's juices with broth or wine, then add it to your gravy for extra flavor.

Baking a variety of dishes is also possible in the roaster oven. A roaster oven makes baking cookies easy and convenient. Simply cover the rack with parchment paper and, after preheating the roaster, set the cookie dough on the rack and bake for the recommended time. You can also bake any bread recipe.
