SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF DIFFERENT FOODS
The MULTIFUNCTION oven set on position or gives simultaneous heterogeneous
cooking of different foods. Different foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked toge
-
ther without mixing the smells and flavours.
This is possible since the fats and vapors are oxidized while passing through the electrical
element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.
The only precautions to follow are:
■
The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with
a maximum difference of 20- 25°C.
■
The introduction of the different dishes in the oven must be done at different times in
relation to the cooking times of each one.
The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
■
that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 and 200°C.
■
that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
USE OF THE GRILL
Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.
Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.
The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
ATTENTION: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
GRILLING AND COOKING “AU GRATIN”
Grilling may be done using the grill+fan setting , in this setting the hot air completely
surrounds the food that is to be cooked, to give a more even and rapid cooking process.
Set the temperature knob
between 50°C and 220°C maximum
, preheat the oven, then
simply place the food on the grid.
Close the door until grilling is complete.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin”
effect.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
ATTENTION: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
