Baking tips
Poultry, meat and fish
Your appliance offers you a range of heating types for
preparing poultry, meat and fish. You can find the ideal
settings for certain dishes in the settings tables.
Roasting on the wire rack
Roasting on the wire rack works particularly well for
large poultry or for multiple pieces at the same time.
Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire rack. If
you are grilling a single piece, place it in the centre of
the wire rack for best results.
The universal pan should also be inserted at position 1.
This will catch the meat juices that drip down and keeps
the cooking compartment clean.
Add up to
^
litre of water to the universal pan,
depending on the size and type of joint. This will catch
the liquid that drips down. You can make a sauce from
these juices. This will also result in less smoke being
produced and keep the cooking compartment clean.
Roasting in cookware
:
Warning – Risk of injury caused by shattering
glass!
Place hot glass cookware on a dry mat after cooking. If
the surface is damp or cold, the glass may crack.
:
Warning – Risk of scalding!
Very hot steam may escape when opening the lid after
cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam
can escape away from you.
Only use cookware which is suitable for use in an oven.
Glass cookware is best. Check whether the cookware
fits in the cooking compartment.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore
not particularly suitable. The poultry, meat and fish
cooks slower and does not brown so well. Use a higher
temperature and/or a longer cooking time.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for your
roasting cookware.
You want to find out whether the
baked item is completely cooked in
the middle.
Push a cocktail stick into the highest point on the baked item. If the cocktail stick comes out clean with no
dough residue, the baked item is ready.
The baked item collapses.
Next time, use less liquid. Alternatively, set the temperature 10 °C lower and extend the baking time. Adhere
to the specified ingredients and preparation instructions in the recipe.
The baked item has risen in the mid-
dle but is lower around the edge.
Only grease the base of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the baked item carefully with a knife.
The fruit juice overflows.
Next time, use the universal pan.
Small baked items stick to one
another during baking.
There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for the baked items to
expand well and brown on all sides.
The baked item is too dry.
Set the temperature 10 °C higher and shorten the baking time.
The baked item is too light in colour
overall.
If the shelf position and the accessories are correct, then you should increase the temperature if necessary or
extend the baking time.
The baked item is too light on top, and
too dark underneath.
Bake the cake one level higher in the oven the next time.
The baked item is too dark on top,
and too light underneath.
Bake the cake one level lower in the oven the next time. Select a lower temperature and extend the baking
time.
The baked item is too dark in a tin or
loaf tin.
Place the baking tray in the middle of the accessory, not directly against the back wall.
The baked item is too dark in colour
overall.
Select a lower temperature next time and extend the baking time if necessary.
The baked item is unevenly browned. Select a slightly lower temperature.
Protruding greaseproof paper can affect the air circulation. Always cut greaseproof paper to size.
Ensure that the baking tin does not stand directly in front of the openings in the cooking compartment back
wall.
When baking small items, you should use similar sizes and thicknesses wherever possible.
You were baking on several levels.
The items on the top baking tray are
darker than those on the lower baking
tray.
Always select hot air when baking on several levels. Baked items that are placed into the oven on trays or in
baking tins at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
The baked item looks good, but is not
cooked properly in the middle.
Use a lower temperature and bake slightly longer; if necessary, add slightly less liquid. For baked items with a
moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or breadcrumbs and then place the topping on top.
The baked item cannot be turned out
of the dish when it is turned upside
down.
Allow the baked item to cool down for 5 to 10 minutes after baking. If it still sticks, carefully loosen it around
the edges again using a knife. Turn the baked item upside down again and cover it several times with a cold,
wet cloth. Next time, grease the baking tin and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
