PRACTICAL COOKING ADVICE
Preheating
If the oven must be preheated (generally this is the case
when cooking leavened foods) the
“ventilation” mode
can be used to reach the desired temperaure as quickly as
possible in order to save on energy.
Once the food has been placed in the oven, the most
appropriate cooking mode can then be selected.
Using the Grill
The plurifunction oven offers you 2 different grilling modes.
Use the
“grill” it allows you to grill small portions like
toasted sandwiches, hotdogs, etc., to perfection.
Position the food under the center of the grill because only
the central part of the top heating element is turned on.
Food placed in the corners will not cook properly.
The
“Ventilated Grill” is extremely useful for grilling
foods rapidly, as the distribution of heat makes it possible
not only to brown the surface, but also to cook the bottom
part.
This mode can also be used for browning foods at the end
of the cooking process.
Important: always use the grill with the oven door
closed. This will allow you both to attain excellent results
and to save energy (10% circa).
For the best results when cooking on the grill, it is
recommended to use the highest setting of the thermostat
(200°C), which utilizes infrared rays. The grill should be
placed on the higher racks (see the cooking chart). To catch
fat and prevent smoke, place a dripping pan beneath the
rack used for grilling.
When utilizing the grill, place the rack at the lower levels
(see cooking table). To catch grease or fat and prevent
smoke, place a dripping-pan at the bottom rack level.
Baking Pastries
When baking pastries, always place them in the oven after
it has been preheated. Make sure you wait until the oven
has been preheated thoroughly (the red "E" light will turn
off). Do not open the door while the pastry is cooking in
order to prevent it from dropping.
Batters must not be too runny, as this will result in prolonged
cooking times. In general:
Pastry is too dry
Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the
cooking time.
Pastry dropped
Use less liquid or lower the the temperature by 10°C.
Pastry is too dark on top
Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and
increase the cooking time.
Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside
Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the
cooking time.
The pastry sticks to the pan
Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of
flour.
I used more than one level and they are not all at the
same cooking point
Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to
remove the food from all the racks at the same time.
Cooking Pizza
For best results when cooking pizza use the "ventilation
mode"
:
•
Preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes;
•
Use a light aluminum pizza pan, placing it on the broiler
supplied with the oven. If the dripping-pan is used, this
will extend the cooking time, making it difficult to get a
crispy crust;
•
Do not open the oven door frequently while the pizza is
cooking;
•
If the pizza has a lot of toppings (three of four), it is
recommended that the mozzarella cheese be placed on
top halfway through the cooking process;
Cooking Fish and Meat
Meat must weigh at least 1 Kg in order to prevent it from
drying out. When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use
low temperature settings (150
°
C-200
°
C). For red meat that
should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy
in the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high tempera-
ture setting (200
°
C-220
°
C) for a short time, then turn the
oven down afterwards. In general, the larger the roast, the
lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the centre
of the rack and place the dripping pan beneath it to catch
the fat.
Make sure that the rack is inserted so that it is in the
centre of the oven. If you would like to increase the amount
of heat from below, use the low rack heights. For savory
roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress the meat
with lard or bacon on the top.
