Suggestions and practical advice for baking

Meat, poultry, fish

Cookware

Any heatproof cookware can be used. For large roasts, the 

enamel tray can also be used.
It is best to use glass containers. Check that the lid of the 

cookware will fit and close properly.
If using enamel containers, add more liquid.
When using stainless steel pans, the meat does not brown well 

and may even be left rare. If so, lengthen the cooking time.
Data shown in tables: 

Uncovered cookware = open 

Covered cookware = closed
Always place cookware in the centre of the wire shelf.
Hot glass cookware should be placed on a dry dishcloth. The 

glass could shatter if rested on a wet or cold surface.

Roasting

Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the 

ovenware with approx. ½ cm of liquid.
Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the 

ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the 

material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an 

enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if 

cooked in glass ovenware.

Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The 

meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher 

temperature and/or a longer cooking time.

Grilling

Always use the grill with the oven closed.
For grilling, preheat the oven for about 3 minutes before the 

food is placed inside the oven.
Place the pieces directly on the wire shelf. If only one piece is 

prepared, it is best if placed in the centre of the wire shelf.
Place the enamel tray at level 1. The tray will help keep the 

oven clean by catching any meat juices.
Do not place the baking tray or universal tray at level 4 or 5. 

Due to the extreme heat, it could be deformed and cause 

damage to the oven interior when it is removed.
In so far as it is possible, use pieces of the same thickness. 

This will help them brown evenly and remain juicy. Salt the 

fillets after grilling.
Turn the pieces after 

Z

 the time has elapsed.

The grill resistance switches on and off automatically. This is 

normal. The frequency depends on the chosen power level.

Meat

Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.
When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for 

an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the 

meat juices.
After cooking, wrap sirloin in aluminium foil and leave it to rest 

for 10 minutes in the oven.
For roast pork with a rind, score the rind in a crossways pattern, 

then lay the roast in the dish with the rind at the bottom.

If you want to use your own recipe.

You can use a similar product to the one listed in the cooking table as a guide.

How to check whether your sponge cake is 

ready.

10 minutes before the end of the cooking time indicated in the recipe, test the 

thickest part of the cake with a thin wooden skewer. The cake is ready when the 

skewer comes out clean, with no traces of cake mix.

The cake is too flat.

Next time, try using less liquid or reduce the oven temperature by 10 degrees. 

Ensure you mix the dough according to the times given in the recipe.

The cake has a peaked centre, but the edges 

are lower.

Do not grease the cake tin. Once the cake is ready, use a knife to carefully 

remove it from the cake tin.

If the cake is too brown on top.

Position the cake lower in the oven, reduce the oven temperature and bake it for 

longer.

The cake is too dry.

Use a skewer to make small holes in the finished cake. Pour a few drops of fruit 

juice or alcoholic drink over the cake. Next time, increase the oven temperature 

by 10 degrees and reduce the cooking time.

The bread or cake (fruit cake, for example) looks 

fine on the outside but still has soft (soggy) 

areas inside.

Next time, use less liquid and leave the product for a little longer in the oven, at 

a lower temperature. The bases of cakes with juicy toppings should be baked 

first on their own. Then sprinkle chopped almonds or breadcrumbs on the base 

before adding the topping. Follow the recipe and the cooking times.

Pastries are not evenly browned.

Select a lower temperature; the pastries will be browned more uniformly. Bake 
more delicate pastries with top and bottom heating

%

 on one level. Overhang-

ing greaseproof paper may also affect air circulation. Always trim it to fit the bak-

ing tray.

The fruit pie is not brown enough at the bottom. Next time put the pie in at a lower level.
The fruit juices are spilling out.

Next time use the universal tray if available.

Small pastries made with yeast may stick 

together during baking.

Leave a space of about 2 cm between them. Then they will have enough space 

to rise and brown on all sides.

Products have been baked on different levels. 

Pastries on the upper tray are darker than those 

on the lower tray.

Always use the 3D

<

Hot air function when baking products on different levels. 

Although several baking trays may be placed in the oven at the same time, this 

does not mean that they will necessarily all be ready at the same time.

Baking moist cakes produces condensation.

Condensation may form when baking. Some of this moisture may evaporate via 

the door handle, and drops of condensation may form on the control panel or on 

the front of nearby kitchen units. The oven is physically designed with this in 

mind.
