Poultry
Tips for using Automatic
programmes
– Poultry weighing less than 900 g is
not suitable for cooking using an
Automatic programme as it is likely
to dry out.
– The Miele Gourmet oven dishes are
ideal for Automatic programmes, as
there is plenty of space to add liquid.
When using ovenproof glass,
ceramic or stainless steel roasting
dishes, it might be necessary to
reduce the quantity of liquid being
added.
– Rub poultry with oil and season to
taste before putting it in the oven.
– Always place poultry in the oven with
the breast uppermost. Some
programmes require the addition of
extra liquid part way through the
cooking time and sometimes, if using
a lid, the lid needs to be removed.
This will be indicated in the display.
Tips for using the food probe (if
available)
– With poultry, insert the food probe
into the thickest part of the breast.
Make sure that the metal tip is
inserted as deeply as possible into
the thickest part of the bird, and that
the handle is angled upwards as far
as possible. Make sure the tip of the
food probe is not touching any bone.
– If you are cooking several birds
together, select ones that are similar
in size. Insert the food probe into the
largest bird.
– When using the food probe you will
be given an estimated cooking
duration. This will fluctuate during the
course of cooking.
