Baking tips
Grease filter
Remove the grease filter from the
back wall. Otherwise results can be
uneven.
Bakeware
Dark-colored bakeware is best for
baking. It conducts the heat more
swiftly to the mixture. Shiny metal
bakeware reflects heat so cakes take
longer to cook and do not brown
evenly.
Cakes baked in white tin bakeware re-
quire a longer baking duration.
Bake cakes in rectangular bakeware
with the longer side across the width
of the oven compartment for opti-
mum heat distribution and even re-
sults.
Universal tray
Because of its PerfectClean anti-stick
surface, the universal tray does not
need to be greased for baking.
Parchment paper
Parchment paper is only necessary
when baking:
– Anything with a high salt content (e.g.
pretzels, bread sticks), because
sodium can damage the PerfectClean
surface
– Meringues or dishes with a high egg
white content, because they are more
likely to stick
– Puff pastry
Frozen food
When baking deep frozen products
such as chips, croquettes, cakes,
pizza and baguettes, use the lowest
temperature quoted on the manufac-
turer's packaging.
Cook frozen goods such as cakes,
pizza or baguettes on a layer of bak-
ing parchment placed on the rack.
Baking large frozen items on the bak-
ing tray or the universal tray can
cause the metal to distort to such an
extent that the tray cannot be taken
out of the oven.
Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes can
be cooked on the universal tray.
Place them on baking parchment and
turn several times during cooking.
