Tips and tricks

▯
Always preheat the grill. In this way, the intensive
heat radiation will seal the surface of the grilled
food and juice cannot leak.
▯
To avoid drying out of the surface and to improve
the taste, lightly brush grilled food with heat--
resistant oil (e.g. peanut oil). Make sure you do
not use too much oil as otherwise the oil may flare
up or smoke heavily.
▯
Always grill meat unsalted. Otherwise, meat juice
and soluble nutrients might leak and be lost.
▯
Place the food directly on the cast grill. Do not
use aluminium foil or grilling trays.
▯
Turn grilled pieces over as soon as they can be
removed easily from the grill. If meat sticks to the
grill, the fibres are destroyed and juice leaks out.
▯
Do not pierce the meat while grilling it. It may lose
its juice.
▯
Avoid pickled foods such as boiled ham and
smoked pork etc. otherwise a substance may be
produced that is harmful to health.
▯
Notch cutlets several times on the bone and in the
fat layer so they do not curve during grilling.
▯
Do not remove the fatty layer (e.g. on a cutlet)
until after grilling as otherwise the meat will lose
juice and aroma.
▯
Poultry will become crispy brown if you coat it
with butter, salty water or orange juice towards
the end of the grilling time.
▯
Season fruit to taste after grilling with honey,
maple syrup or lemon juice.
▯
You can precook vegetables with a long cooking
time (for example corn on the cob).
▯
Place fish fillet on the grill with the skin down.
Coat the skin with oil in order to avoid it sticking
to the grill.
▯
Serve grilled food hot. Grilled food will become
tough if you keep it warm.
