HOW TO READ THE COOKING TABLE

The table lists the best function, accessories and

level to use to cook different types of food. Cooking

times start from the moment food is placed in the

oven, excluding preheating (where required). Cooking

temperatures and times are approximate and depend

on the amount of food and the type of accessory

used. Use the lowest recommended settings to begin

with and, if the food is not cooked enough, then

switch to higher settings. Use the accessories supplied

and preferably dark-coloured metal cake tins and

baking trays. You can also use Pyrex or stoneware

pans and accessories, but bear in mind that cooking

times will be slightly longer.

COOKING DIFFERENT FOODS AT THE SAME TIME

Using the “Forced Air” function, you can cook

different foods which require the same cooking

temperature at the same time (for example: fish and

vegetables), using different shelves. Remove the food

which requires a shorter cooking time and leave the

food which requires a longer cooking time in the

oven.

MEAT

Use any kind of oven tray or pyrex dish suited to the

size of the piece of meat being cooked. For roast

joints, it is best to add some stock to the bottom of

the dish, basting the meat during cooking for added

flavour. Please note that steam will be generated

during this operation. When the roast is ready, let it

rest in the oven for another 10-15 minutes, or wrap it

in aluminium foil.

When you want to grill meat, choose cuts with an

even thickness all over in order to achieve uniform

cooking results. Very thick pieces of meat require

longer cooking times. To prevent the meat from

burning on the outside, lower the position of the

wire shelf, keeping the food farther away from the

grill. Turn the meat two thirds of the way through

cooking. Take care when opening the door as steam

will escape.

To collect the cooking juices, we recommend placing

a dripping pan filled with half a litre of drinking water

directly underneath the wire shelf on which the food

is placed. Top-up when necessary.

DESSERTS

Cook delicate desserts with the conventional function

on one shelf only.

Use dark-coloured metal baking pans and always

place them on the wire shelf supplied. To cook on

more than one shelf, select the forced air function and

stagger the position of the cake tins on the shelves,

aiding optimum circulation of the hot air.

To check whether a leavened cake is cooked, insert a

wooden toothpick into the centre of the cake. If the

toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.

If using non-stick baking pans, do not butter the

edges as the cake may not rise evenly around the

edges.

If the item “swells” during baking, use a lower

temperature next time and consider reducing the

amount of liquid you add or stirring the mixture more

gently.

For desserts with moist fillings or toppings (such

as cheesecake or fruit tarts), use the “Convection

bake” function. If the base of the cake is soggy, lower

the shelf and sprinkle the bottom of the cake with

breadcrumbs or biscuit crumbs before adding the

filling.

PIZZA

Lightly grease the trays to ensure the pizza has a

crispy base. Scatter the mozzarella over the pizza two

thirds of the way through cooking.

RISING

It is always best to cover the dough with a damp

cloth before placing it in the oven. Dough proving

time with this function is reduced by approximately

one third compared to proving at room temperature

(20-25°C). The rising time for pizza starts at around

one hour for 1 kg of dough.
