‘S’ SLOW setting

“Slow” cook is identified as ‘S’ on the oven temperature scale.

This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short

periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be

damaged in a hot oven.

Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:

The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.

Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.

Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.

Fully loading the oven can be economical.

Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.

Operation:

1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.

2. Select ‘S’ (Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning Main Oven Temperature

Control clockwise ensuring the oven door is fully closed.

Storage and re-heating of food:

1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container

and cool as soon as possible.

2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.

3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.

4. Only re-heat food once.

Points to consider when preparing food for “SLOW” cooking:

1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven ensuring enough

room for air to circulate.

2. All dishes cooked on the slow setting will require a minimum of 6 hours, however,

if they are cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance

may be noticed.

3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2.0kg (4 lb 8oz).

We do not recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking

on the slow setting.

4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170˚C for 30 minutes

before wrapping in foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air

circulation) before turning the control to the slow setting and cooking immediately.

5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking

with a meat thermometer before serving.

6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend

placing frozen food in the oven to cook.

7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.

8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not airtight) and cover to the

top with foil to prevent loss of moisture.

9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even sized small pieces to cook

properly.

10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.

11. If using dried red kidney beans it is important that the beans are soaked and

then boiled for a minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish to destroy any

toxins.

12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to

avoid overcooking.

Using the Main Oven for other Functions

DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the

oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.
