Notes
‒
Always preheat the appliance.
This will provide the best cooking results. The
cooking times specified refer to a pre-heated
appliance.
‒
The values specified are intended as a guide. The
actual cooking time depends on the quality and
temperature of the food before cooking, the
weight and thickness of the food to be cooked.
‒
Temperature ranges are given in the tables. Start
with the lowest temperature. A higher temperature
can be selected next time, if required. A lower
temperature results in more even browning.
‒
The values given refer to average quantities for
four people. If you would like to prepare more
food, you should allow for a longer cooking time.
‒
Use the cookware specified. If you use other
cookware, cooking times may be longer or
shorter.
‒
You can use any heat-resistant cookware. Place
the cookware in the centre of the wire rack. For
large roasts, you can also use the grill tray or
glass dish.
‒
Do not place too many items close together on
wire racks or baking trays. This is the only way to
ensure optimal heat circulation.
‒
To prepare bulky food items, you can remove the
side slide-in rack. Place the wire rack directly
onto the bottom of the cooking compartment and
place the food or roasting dish onto the wire rack.
Do not place the food or roasting dish directly
onto the enamel bottom of the cooking
compartment.
‒
Open the door of the preheated oven for a short
time only when placing food inside the cooking
compartment.
‒
The values given for the level refer to the rack
level (counting from the bottom) in appliances
with four rack levels. The values in brackets refer
to appliances with five rack levels.
‒
Once you have taken glass cookware out of the
oven, set it down on a dry trivet or heat-proof mat;
never set it down on a cold or wet surface.
Otherwise, the glass may crack.
‒
Some operating modes are not available on all
oven models or are only available as an optional
accessory.
Vegetables
▯
Oven-roasted or oven-baked vegetables are a
good alternative to pan-fried vegetables. The
different flavours become more concentrated and,
because the vegetables are roasted, they have a
very distinctive taste. In addition, very little fat is
required to prepare the vegetables.
▯
Clean and prepare the vegetables and mix them
with a little oil in a bowl. Place them in a heat-
resistant baking dish or tin or in the glass dish/
grill tray and spread them out evenly.
▯
Mix them thoroughly at least once during the
cooking process. Once they are cooked, season
them and sprinkle them with fresh herbs to taste.
▯
Vegetables are good as a hot or cold starter or
vegetarian main course, or as an accompaniment
to meat and fish.
▯
Use an ovenproof dish for small portions (for 2 - 3
people) and place it on the wire rack. If you use
the glass dish/grill tray, the food will start to burn
or dry out.
▯
In addition, always follow the manufacturer's
instructions for pre-cooked and frozen products.
