Menu cooking (cooking whole meals) - manually
Before cooking meals with the Menu cooking function
switch off the steam reduction system (see "Settings").
You can use the steam oven to cook a whole meal containing
types of food which have different cooking durations, e.g. fish
fillet with rice and broccoli. Each dish is placed in the oven at
different times so that they are all ready at the same time.
Shelf level
When cooking fish or food with a distinctive colour (e.g. bee-
troot) in a perforated container, place the perforated contai-
ner directly above the condensate tray / universal tray to
avoid any transfer of flavour or colour to other food and to
prevent liquid dripping onto food below it.
Temperature
Whole meals should be cooked at a temperature of 100 °C as
this is the temperature required to cook the majority of foods.
Do not cook a whole meal at the lowest temperature when
different temperatures are required for different types of food,
e.g. 85 °C for seabream and 100 °C for potatoes.
If the recommended cooking temperature for the food is
85 °C for example, try cooking it at 100 °C and testing the
result. Some delicate types of fish with a soft structure, e.g.
sole and plaice will become very firm when cooked at 100 °C.
Duration
If you are increasing the recommended temperature, shorten
the cooking duration by approx.
