BEFORE USING OVENS
I
n order to achieve optimum use and maximum benefit from your oven, please read the following hints carefully in order
to familiarise yourself with the principles of oven cooking.
A
n oven cooks and heats by using a heat source which is generally located inside the oven. This heat source heats the
air and then the entire oven. The food therefore cooks thanks to the heat given off by the heating elements but also
thanks to heat radiated from the oven walls.
T
his is why it is advisable to:

Pre-heat the oven for 15 to 30 minutes depending on the setting selected before placing your dish in the oven .

When placing the dish in the oven, make sure that it is not too close to the oven walls in order to prevent the edges
of dishes being exposed to excessive radiated heat.
T
he material of which plates and moulds are made influences cooking due to its thickness, ability to transmit heat and its
colour.

Aluminium, earthenware and aluminium with a non-stick coating reduce cooking and underside browning. These
materials are recommended for cooking cakes and roasts.

Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium, tin-plated iron, ovenproof glass, heat-resistant porcelain and aluminium
with a non-stick coating and coloured exterior increase underside browning. These materials are recommended in
particular for open tarts, quiches and all crispy preparations that must be browned on the underside as well as on the
top.
I
n order to prevent smoke being given off due to grease splashes when cooking meat, it is advisable to use pans that
have high thermal inertia (earthenware or enamelled cast iron pans) with high edges of a size that matches the joint
being roasted. Turn red meats over half way through cooking.
I
t is inadvisable to place a pan directly on the base of the oven or to cook joints simply placed in the drip tray.
These few hints plus your own experience will enable you to achieve excellent results.
D
anger:
When the oven or grill are switched on, accessible parts may become very hot. Keep children away
from them. Be careful when handling dishes and shelves.
Openings or slits for ventilation or heat dissipation must not be blocked.
Never store flammable products in the compartment for saucepans
