4. Cooking guidelines
WARNING!
Be very careful when frying, because oil and fat heat up
very fast especially when operating a high power level. Extremely hot oil
and fat inflame spontaneously and represent a serious fire risk.
WARNING!
NEVER
try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off
the appliance and then cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.
4.1 Cooking tips
Decrease the power level as soon as the desired cooking temperature is reached.
Use pot-lids to shorten cooking times and save energy.
Minimize the amount of cooking liquids or fat / oil to shorten cooking times.
Select a high power level, when you start cooking. Reduce the power level,
when your food has been heated up.

IMMERING
/
COOKING OF RICE
Simmering is cooking with a temperature of approx. 85
0
C. At this temperature
small bubbles ascend to the surface of the cooking liquid. Simmering is a perfect
way to cook delicious soups and stews as the flavours of the food unfold
completely without being over-heated. You should also cook egg-based sauces
and sauces thickened with flour in this way.
Some cooking procedures, including the cooking of rice with the absorption-
method (= the water is consumed completely), require a setting above the
lowest power level, so the food is cooked within the recommended cooking
time.
