GRILLING
: Almost all meats may be grilled, with the exception of some lean game meats and meat loaves.
Apply a little oil on the meat or fish to be cooked and always place them on the grill - put the grill in the guides
nearest or furthest from the grill heating element in proportion to the meat, in order to avoid burning the surface
and cooking the inside insufficiently. It is useful to place a tray under the grill to collect drops of gravy and fat.
BAKING ADVICE
VERY IMPORTANT: To properly bake pre-baked bread in the dobra convection oven, the pre baked
bread must be completely defrost.
In convection ovens, cooking takes place through the circulation of hot air. Therefore, it is necessary to leave
space at the sides of and between the products. This will result in uniform, perfect baking, using less time and
energy.
PRE HEATING
: It is advisable to preheat the cooking chamber. To do this, set the oven temperature 25 - 50ºC
/ 77 - 122ºF above the cooking temperature.
USING TRAYS
: it is important to choose the right tray type for each type of product. For rolls and pastries, we
recommend a smooth, fat tray. For bread, we recommend a perforated aluminium tray. DOBRA has designed
a perforated tray with some larger square holes. This allows the air to circulate better, providing better cooking
and giving the pan more crust. This tray can be used for rolls and pastries by covering it with baking paper.
