Chef's recommendations
Recommendations
■
When heating up puree, cream soups and thick
sauces, stir occasionally.
■
Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating.
■
When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting
down as soon as steam escapes between the lid
and the cookware. Steam does not need to escape
for a good cooking result.
■
After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you
serve the food.
■
To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
■
Do not cook food for too long, otherwise the
nutrients will be lost. The kitchen clock can be used
to set the optimum cooking time.
■
For a more healthy cooking result, smoking oil
should be avoided.
■
To brown food, fry small portions in succession.
■
Cookware may reach high temperatures while the
food is cooking. We recommend that you use oven
gloves.
