USEFUL TIPS

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
The "Forced Air" function enables you to cook
different foods (such as fish and vegetables) on
different shelves at the same time.
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 200 ml 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 position the baking pans on different shelves to
facilitate the circulation of hot air.
To check whether a leavened cake is fully 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 dessert 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 rising time with
this function is reduced by approximately one third
compared to rising at room temperature (20 - 25°C).
The rising time for pizza starts at around one hour for
1 kg of dough.
