HOW TO READ THE COOKING TABLE
The table indicates the best function to use with
certain types of food cooked on a single shelf.
Cooking times start from the moment food is placed
in the oven, excluding pre-heating (where required).
Cooking temperatures and times are purely for
guidance and will depend on the amount of food and
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 pans and accessories or ones made from china,
but bear in mind that cooking times will be slightly
longer. For best results, follow the recommendations
in the cooking table carefully when selecting which
of the supplied accessories to place on which of the
shelves.
DESSERTS
- Use dark-coloured metal baking pans and always
place them on the wire shelf supplied.
- 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 cake tins, 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.
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.
