Cooking
After preheating the appliance is ready for use.
• Raclette setting
Raclette is a traditional Swiss dish. Use original Raclette cheese for best results. Use 150-
250g of cheese per person. Cut into slices about 2mm thick.
- Prepare boiled potatoes in their skin and keep warm in a covered container or on the grill.
- Put cheese in each of the raclette skillets and place them into the appliance. The cheese
will be ready in 3-4 minutes.
- When the cheese has turned a nice golden-brown colour, serve it warm or pour it over
the potatoes. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
Raclette is good with ham, Swiss beef (viande de Grison), shallots and gherkins.
Do not let the skillets heat while empty.
• Cooking stone setting
- Turn thermostat to desired temperature. The indicator light will go on. During cooking,
the stone will take 5-10 minutes to register and respond to any changes in temperature.
- Each guest puts pieces of meat, fish, vegetables or fruit on the stone and cooks them to
his or her taste.
- Serve with cold sauces, salad and potatoes.
Do not use the cooking stone for frozen or deep frozen food, or for thick pieces of food
(max 2cm). Do not allow acidic products (vinegar, mustard, pickles, gherkins…) to come
into contact with the cooking stone. Never rest any object on the cooking stone. The
appliance should not be left for more than 30 minutes without food: the cooking stone
will become too hot and will not operate well. The little cracks caused by the stone's dilation
are natural and have no effect on its functioning. They are not therefore cause to return
this product. After several uses the stone normally turns a permanent dark colour. The first
time it is used, it may omit smoke or a slight odour.
• Grill/Crêpe griddle setting
- Turn thermostat to desired temperature. The indicator light will go on.
- Cut meat into small pieces; this shortens the cooking time. Serve the pieces of meat on
a plate or wooden board, so that each guest can choose how much he/she would like and
can cook it him/herself.
- You can grill toast, glaze or cook fruit, eggs, potatoes, etc.
Grilled foods can be served with various sauces, salads or bread. The griddle's concave
surface is perfect for making crêpes and omelettes.
• Crêpe setting
- Turn thermostat to HIGH. The indicator light will go on.
- Pour batter onto the griddle and cook for 1-2 min. each side.
- The first time it is used, it may omit smoke or a slight odour.
- Do not touch the surface of the appliance - it is hot!
